23579	Default Geometry representation from WKT to EWKT	Claude Paroz	nobody	"Currently, the default `__str__` representation of a `GEOSGeometry` object is its WKT representation (e.g. `""POINT (1 2)""`).
I'd like to suggest moving to the EWKT representation which includes the SRID information (e.g. `""SRID=4326;POINT (1 2)""`).
For me, coordinates without SRID is like an encoded string without knowing its encoding, or a datetime object without the timezone.

The change is trivial. There is a small backwards compatibility issue, essentially for people testing the output of `str(geom)`, and it also means that the SRID will also appear in `dumpdata` output, which is welcome in my opinion.
