Rich,

Format options are used in a variety of places and there is no comprehensive
listing.  You can search the code with the command "grep -i formatoption" to
find the bulk of MapServer specific format option values.  But for GDAL drivers
they are also passed through to GDAL and you would need to review the format
driver documentation for each GDAL driver to find all possible options (format
options are translated as GDAL creation options).

I sympathize with the mysteriousness of this.  It would be nice to have a
summary of the MapServer specific format options in the docs.

Best regards,
