 Replying to [comment:4 hamish]:

 Hi Hamish,
 I am sorry for late response.

 Yes, they are useful!

 > I prefer to avoid -o,-q,-v as option letters if there are others
 available, since it is easy for users to confuse them with --o,--q,--v.
 fwiw I also like to avoid -l, -1, and -I, but for certain-font reasons.

 That is good point. Do you have any other idea for name of this flag or
 just changed it to -s?

 height?

 The selection is not cleared, there exists independent panels for every
 web service because it is not guaranteed that capabilities file will be
 same for WMS 1.3.0 and 1.1.1 (if you select something it stays selected in
 the web service panel). Ideal solution would be existence of one panel,
 which would adapt according to set web service. But still it should
 probably behave same way. The resize problem should be fixed in r57025.

 >  * wx: how about being able to filter the list like the location wizard
 has for projection type Search? (often the servers have 50+ layers to
 search)

 It is good idea.
 Please add it to: https://trac.osgeo.org/grass/wiki/WebServices. There it
 should not be forgotten. Also you can add there the #% gisprompt:
 old,color_none,color idea.

 >  * support for png8 image format? (like qgis has)
 Done in r57024, r57023. It need to be tested.

 >  * I get an error when BGCOLOR is unset, does the spec require it or
 just a picky WMS server?

 Should be fixed in r57022.

 >  * module gui: Interpolation type isn't part of the server request. ->
 Optional gui tab?
 Good idea! Done in r57027 and r57026.

 Best,
 Stepan
