ST_Densify(geography|geometry)

Description

Both geography and geometry need a densification function so that long lines can be transformed without losing their basic shape. This would allow a geodetic geography line to be mapped on a planar map while showing the essential curvature of the great circle interpolation. Similarly, long straight geometry lines in a UTM map could show up in other projections with the current locations.

I guess this doesn't fall in your 2.0 TODO list does it ?

We seem to already have this, only it's called ST_Segmentize, and I did an implementation for geography for 2.1
