Status in Hugin - Panorama Tools GUI: Triaged

Bug description:
Astronomers use panorama-stitching software for the creation of sky maps. They take images of all areas of the sky and combine them into a single photographic map of the sky.
It would be a big simplification if Hugin would provide a map projection like Hammer projection or Aitoff projection as output image. Those projections are ideal for panoramic all-sky mapping applications. 

See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hammer_projection for details.
