Add a token to WMS URLs that causes GeoServer to serve an image for 'Save As' rather than display in browser
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: GEOS-3173
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-3173
Project: GeoServer
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: WMS
Environment: All
Reporter: Greg Ederer
Assignee: Andrea Aime
When a browser issues an HTTP request to GeoServer for a WMS resource, e.g., a PNG map image, the HTTP headers returned by GeoServer do not force the browser to display a 'Save As' dialog, rather than just displaying the PNG in the browser. In order to force this behavior, GeoServer would have to emit certain HTTP headers (I don't recall exactly what, offhand.) It would be great if GeoServer would do this when an additional token is passed in the WMS request URL.
