[Qgis-developer] special proj datum

Hi all.
There is a problem in PROJ4: there are several datum for EPSG 3003 (and
others), but in PROJ4 the epsg file does not allow a relation 1:n with
present format (thanks Markus for clarifying this).
Currently, users need to define their special SRS, which is cumbersome
and scary for newbies. GRASS solved it recently:
http://grass.osgeo.org/screenshots/gui.php#wxpython
-> Location wizard (geodetic datum selection for EPSG 3003 - Italy mainland)
Would it be feasible to copy the approach and port it to QGIS?
All the best.
