Tim, The recent mail to the users list is yet another case of http://trac.openlayers.org/ticket/340 .
I think we (by which I mean "I") have pushed back on this for far too long. I guess we need a decision on it. It seems like we currently do a combination of 'very loose' for map browsing, and 'loose' or 'very loose' for tile requests, depending on displayOutsideMaxExtent setting. Is that correct? So far, all the requests I have seen, loose is good enough. I'd be willing to have a Map level option that was something like 'extentType': 'loose' or something similar, so long as: * The default doesn't change the existing behavior * The differences are fairly well described in a wiki item or something similar. Does that seem sane? Is this something we can still squeeze into 2.5?
