That's correct. We can define a title like "TileCacheLayer" here or we
can add a section [map] to tilecache.cfg where the user can define the
title. For my understanding, the intent of this enclosing <Layer> is to
define some default values that are inherited by the enclosed layers.

I use also Eclipse and the validator showed the missing Title and the
SRS.
