Description

Natural Earth is a projection in proj.4:
http://trac.osgeo.org/proj/wiki/proj%3Dnatearth

The proj.4 string is

+proj=natearth +a=6371008.7714 +b=6371008.7714

Trying to add this projection as Custom CRS Definition fails with "The proj4 definition of 'Natural Earth' is not valid.". Testing the custom CRS (in the lower part of the same dialog) works and returns correct results.
