Unlike other software like Xastir.

Wouldn't it be better to get the maps in WGS84 format, process them 
into cylindrical view and then store both?  That way if UI-View moves 
to a more realistic projection then you'll have undistorted maps to 
work from and other programs can take advantage of the repository?
