[Qgis-user] Mixing Projected and Geographic coordinates in QGIS using OSM and CSV

Hello List,

Please forgive me stupid question, but it appeared to me that it is very 
hard to mix
projected and geographic data in QGIS.

For instance, if I loaded GeoTIFF in UTM and I want to download OSM features
default OSM dialog shows me extend in UTM, which is not acceptable by OSM
server.  I must manually copy and paste Lat/Lon of the corners of the area.
This is not very exiting.  Also, to load CSV values in Lat/Lon appeared
virtually impossible, unless I converted them by hand into UTM.

It is possible to have both UTM and Lat/Lon grids on the printout?
Project CRS is set to UTM.

I would appreciate if someone could point me into right direction
how to solve these issues. There should be something general
I am missing.

Thank you

Mikhail
