Comment (by hamish):

 Hi,

 a sort of related question about this fix:

 if you have just started the program and this is the first data layer you
 have loaded AND you have not already set the CRS with the "P" setup, will
 it automatically set the uninitialized CRS to match the CRS of the first
 layer, or do you still have to manually adjust the project's CRS to match
 the layers? it would be awesome if that could happen automatically. (maybe
 it now does?)


 thanks,
 Hamish
