There is another solution like the one adopted byQGIS which used also .qpj with OGC, see Supported Data Formats (qgis.org) <https://docs.qgis.org/2.2/en/docs/user_manual/working_with_vector/supported_data.html> at Supported Data Formats (qgis.org) <https://docs.qgis.org/2.2/en/docs/user_manual/working_with_vector/supported_data.html>
