Was at FOSS4G Oceania conference and went to very interesting talk on DGGS 
spatial coordinates. I am guessing it will be a long time before this becomes 
mainstream but I was wondering how difficult it would be for WFS spatial 
queries to use a DGGS field in tables which also contained "normal" geography 
field. Doing spatial queries against global databases (ie cant use a projected 
coordinates system) around the poles and antemeridian is tough. DGGS fixes the 
problem. Normal rendering code etc would be unaffected. How easy would it be to 
do a replacement WFS plugin?
