ST_AsText should return SQL/MM WKT

Reported by: pramsey Owned by: strk
Priority: medium Milestone: PostGIS 2.0.0
Component: postgis Version: trunk
Keywords: sqlmm, history Cc:

Description

Moving to SQL/MM, ST_AsText should no longer ignore the 3rd and 4th dimensions, and should return proper type signatures for higher dimensional objects (e.g. "POINT M (0 0 0)", "LINESTRING ZM (0 0 0 0, 1 1 1 1)")

Is this really going to happen in 2.0.0 ?

I'd feel better if such a breaking change would be based on GUC, but it seems too late for GUC, doesn't it ?
