Hello,

I believe what you are looking for is available in MapServer 6.0 
(described in the development version of the WMS Server doc: 
http://www.mapserver.org/trunk/ogc/wms_server.html#reference-section)

I think the metadata tags you need with MapServer 6.0 are:
   - wms_authorityurl_name,
   - wms_authorityurl_href
   - wms_identifier_authority
   - wms_identifier_value
