Comment(by strk):

 I think a format string is the way to go, including a format character to
 obtain the "looser" behavior, to make every case supported. The "loose
 format string" would be the default.

 Any output from ST_AsLatLonText, with a given format string, should be
 interpreted to result in its input when passed with the same format string
 to ST_FromLatLonText. The output from ST_AsLatLonText with no format
 string should be interpreted to result in its input when no format string
 is used in the ST_FromLatLonText function.
