--- Comment #1 from Max Semenik <maxsem.w...@gmail.com> ---
Per IAU conventions (<http://planetarynames.wr.usgs.gov/TargetCoordinates>),
the coordinates on Mars should be in the range of 0-360. While wrapping is
easy, I decided to trigger errors in such situations because we ultimately do
this for humans and humans are much less good at wrapping coordinates on the
fly than machines. This way, we help detect and fix these issues.

As of East/West on Mars, it's really tricky: even the aforementioned page lists
two standards with contradictory E/W signs. I guess it's still a bug as West
should be negative.
