Comment:

 This is weird.

 I'm using qgis 1.3 and 1.4 trunk under Ubuntu 9.04

 I apparently see no problems (with or without OTFR enabled), even if as a
 fact the towgs84 parameter is missing in the resulting layer projection.

 I see also that other layers resulting from other ftools operation seem to
 miss the towgs84 if present in the source layer.

 Not sure where the problem may reside, if in the plugin or in the
 projection component.
