[postgis] SRID for LAT/LONG

A few questions.

1.  Is there a generally accepted or defned AUTH_SRID for LAT/LONGs?
2.  Does or will PostGIS support LAT/LONG and Elevations as a coordinate
    system?
3.  Does or will GiST indexes support LAT/LONGs when determining the
    bounding box for the GIS object?

Why do I ask so many - probably elementary - questions???  (Oh sorry it
was typing out loud  :-)


TIA,
Rod
