I think Alessandro was proposing to add a new "projection method" (i.e.
another set of mathematical formulas for doing the projection). This is
a different work than assigning an EPSG code, which is more about
setting parameter values to use with pre-existing formulas. If this is
the case, then Alessandro's proposal and EPSG change request would be
orthogonal tasks.
