Hello Jukka,

thanks for your feedback. The second way, using default values in the
mapfile, is now working.
Without submitting any parameter, I'm getting the map with default
filter values applied. Very good so far.

I guess now I need to write some mod_rewrite rules for switching between
direct wms and proxy request.
