Comment(by pracine):

 The code for padding is there already. It would be a waste to just throw
 it away. Some people might not mind about keeping the former raster extent
 and want a nice and clean raster coverage with all the tiles the same
 size. It make client read more simple. Mat wanted simplicity AND keeping
 the original extent. You can't have both. And "The reality is that none of
 us will ever know how PostGIS raster will be used" :-)
