Describe a specific use case for the feature:

With Kibana Maps I'd like to implement solutions with local geo-enrichment such as factory floor maps that use relative/fixed positioning of items (tools, sensors, robots). Main use cases would be analytical, such as heatmap overlays of factory KPIs.

In case we would use actual geo-references (more tedious but possible), Kibana-Maps would not be able (afaik) to rotate the map to provide a visually aligned user experience, that is building walls should be aligned with window.

The current workaround seems to NOT use actual geo-refs but use dummy coordinates along with using custom shapes (as done in https://www.elastic.co/blog/operational-analytics-with-elasticsearch-at-elasticon-2017-part-2). This is tricky since we still need to respect lat-long constraints when preparing shapes and map zooming is not properly configurable (see #35148)

Describe the feature:

Kibana maps should allow for custom coordinate systems, such as a flat world defined by an upper left and lower right coordinate.

Maybe this is possible with WMS base layers, which have not tried yet?

This feature is dependent on Elasticsearch's support for projections elastic/elasticsearch#23221
