In 3 dimensions there are 13 separable (orthogonal) coordinate systems. See link -
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthogonal_coordinates How many do you want to implement? I would have a coordinate_system class and use it to instantiate a particular coordinate system then when you instantiate a vector space one of the parameters of the vector space instantiation would be the coordinate system. This way you could have different coordinate systems in the same program. For my geometric algebra modules I started with a metric and derived the basis vectors and their derivatives. If you are interested in this method go to - github.com/brombo/galgebra and look at galgebra.pdf in the doc directory.
