No Frank, that would be a hell! :)
I was just thinking about the relation that can be assumed between the
epsg strings produced by gdal and the epsg codes from the EPSG
registry. I mean, if I say that I'm using an EPSG:3003, it's different
if I assume it in its original definition (without transformation
parameters) and the one produced by gdal (with a best available
transformation).
For anything custom I would strictly use the rule of using code ranges
beyon 32767, and to avoid clashes an authority field would help.

I was referring to the extended -t_srs option you were suggesting...
