Hello Rohan,

wrt to the extra parameterFilters for gwc layers, it would be good if
you can provide a patch instead. I'll be glad to review and integrate,
although perhaps not exactly as you made it since the ability to
configure extra parameter filters on a per layer basis is to come. I'm
currently working on GWC configuration through the UI (gridsets and
integrated layers), and as well as we can cache multiple styles now,
there will be the possibility to cache based on orther parameters
(especially time and elevation, but it should be generic enough as to
allow you to configure any of them).

So yeah, I'll be glad to take a look at a patch and if it seems easy
enough maybe integrate it before we have this full UI configuration in
place. Perhaps as just checkboxes to "cache env" as well as styles
(which is currently supported as a global setting in the gwc config
page).

Cheers,
Gabriel
