I shall note 200,000 is also not in the "user range" as proposed in
https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/postgis-devel/2012-February/018440.html

The official PostGIS Manual doesn't currently advertise what ranges
should user custom entries be in, so I think it's tipical for users to
pick whatever range they guess will remain available over time

Would you be disappointed/surprised by a PostGIS upgrade 
replacing your custom entries above 200000 with some new
"official" entry ? What strategy did you set in place to
prevent this ?
