 When a TIME parameter is applied to a WMS layer it could/should also apply
 to associated WMSGetFeatureInfo requests. Otherwise it can lead to a user
 clicking on an empty map and getting results back when the WMS is not
 within the specified TIME range.

 A workaround is to use the ''beforegetfeatureinfo'' event and to call the
 following function:


 {{{
 function(evt){
         var layers = this.findLayers();
         if (layers.length > 0) {
                 var firstLayer = layers[0];
                 if (firstLayer.params.TIME) {
                         this.vendorParams = {
                                 "time": firstLayer.params.TIME
                         };
                 }
         }
 }
 }}}

 Alternatively the buildWMSOptions function in the
 OpenLayers.Control.WMSGetFeatureInfo could be updated to check for a TIME
 parameter on the first WMS layer and apply this to the request.
