Determine if intermediate (pivot) CRS can be used when researching coordinate
operation between 2 CRS. A typical example is the WGS84 pivot. By default,
- projinfo will consider any potential pivot. If using the ``none`` strategy,
+ projinfo will consider any potential pivot if there is no direct transformation

only direct transformations between the source and target CRS will be

+ even if there are direct transformations.
+ It is also possible to restrict the pivot CRS to consider by specifying
one or several CRS by their AUTHORITY:CODE.
