Could you give a few examples of where the arbitrary coordinate systems
would actually be useful? This is the part I'm confused about - you're
focussing on them a lot, but I don't see why.

I would have thought it would be up to the application to provide the
logorithmic coordinate mappings rather than the GUI.
