#1332: ST_AsX3D opt option for axis ordering and bounding box output
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
 Reporter:  robe         |       Owner:  pramsey      
     Type:  enhancement  |      Status:  new          
 Priority:  medium       |   Milestone:  PostGIS 2.0.0
Component:  postgis      |     Version:  trunk        
 Keywords:               |  
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
 Add an opt option similar to what ST_AsGML has to allow outputting
 coordinates in a different orientation and also just the bounding box of
 the geometry.

 Ideally would have an option to output a true mimimum bounding box
 (arbitrarily orientated minimum bounding box) not just an axis aligned
 one. As described here:

 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimum_bounding_box

 Once I figure out how compute that.
