Consider changing our reprojection to only work off of EPSG codes #197

Users currently have the ability to free form input projection parameters, 
which opens the door for error and overly burdens the users from remembering 
the correct parameters.

If we allowed them to specify EPSG codes instead, we could dramatically 
increase the reprojection options available to end users while reducing the 
work needed on not only the user but also on the back end developers.

What's more, if users requested additional EPSG's to be added, we could easily 
modify the back end proj definition files to allow for that.

"Strongly" consider doing this.

We probably need to allow users the ability to do both.

Additionally, we should also allow another mechanism for users to begin by 
entering the area of interest and search the inventory to auto generate the 
scene list.  Need to leave the ability to manually enter the scenes/tiles as 
well.
