Unrelated question: Can mapcache handle multiple srs in a WMS service (out)?

The reprojection is done inside MapCache, i.e. as a client of the original tiles. You don't need an additional WMS :)

I thought MapCache did support native MapServer mode=map as a source which could useful if GDAL supports WMTS and you could create a corresponding MapServer layer.

As planned, Mapcache should work as a WMTS client down towards target 1 and WMTS server up against target 3, ie. kind of a proxy with crs reprojection and basic auth. Anyway, does this make any sense at all, or is the draft totally irrational?
