Description:
The WMS 1.1.1 specification includes the following text under section 7.1.3.3

"In WMS version 1.0.0, the value of this parameter was "capabilities".
That value is now deprecated, but for backwards compatibility a post-1.0.0 server shall accept either form without issuing a Service Exception."

The use of the word 'shall' means that we have to do this in order to remain complient.
