27421	Add support for size, shape, and offset parameters on instantiation of GDALRaster objects.	Daniel Wiesmann	Daniel Wiesmann	"The [https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contrib/gis/gdal/#django.contrib.gis.gdal.GDALBand.data data() method on GDALBand objects for setting pixel values] accepts parameters that allow fine grained control over the pixel values. The parameters are `size`, `shape`, and `offset`. Band data values can be replicated (for fast writing of blocks of equal data values for instance) and specific blocks of data can be written.

This functionality should also be available directly when instantiating GDALRaster objects. So that band data values can be controlled with more detail on raster creation."	New feature	closed	GIS	dev	Normal	fixed			Accepted	1	0	0	0	0	0
