Comment:

 I don't think this is fixable with our current spatial_ref_sys desisgn. To
 fix it in my migrations I've hardcoded the necessary SRID transformation
 strings inside Postgis, but that isn't a proper solution.

 I think that ideally we would have a set of static SRIDs inside
 Postgis/PROJ (independent of spatial_ref_sys) that can't be modified by
 the end user and then allow having other SRIDS (as long as they don't
 collide with the static ones). This would mean a major change which I'm
 not sure we want to tackle.
