[Geoserver-devel] WMS and vendor specific parameters?

Hi Richard, one of the commercial projects I am on would like the ability to punt in vendor specific parameters as part of those getMap requests ...

I am trying to think what this would look like, the best I can come up with is a Property class (ie subclass of Map<String,String>) in which the keys do not conflict with anything in the usual getMap request.

On the GeoServer side (in addition to complicating Justin's thinking about an operation API) it would be nice if we could send these parameters into the geotools renderer as environmental variables.

Support for vendor specific parameters should already be usable. Each request
has a method .setProperty(String key, String value), to let you directly hack
at the request properties.
