An option could be to emit a <!-- WARNING ... --> comment in the 
GetCapabilities when this layer is being processed. At least for WMS and 
WFS, WARNINGs in GetCapabilities are used this way to report several 
potential config issues or missing pieces of info.

Or a way to make 'all' the default? For instance, we could allow setting 
"ows_service" "wms, wfs" in the WEB metadata, and this value would be 
inherited by default by all layers unless they have their own 
ows_service metadata. This way if you want to include 20 layers and 
exclude only one or two you can do it easily without having to set 
ows_service on all layers in the mapfile.
