We can have an extension point for that but... be careful of what you wish.
I can think of people installing the extension for at least two reasons:

   1. This is the way to go, gonna drop everything else
   2. Let me try out this new thing I've never used before and compare with
   what I'm doing today

The "true believers" in place 1. will be pleased to find their tech of
choice in a prominent place.
The other ones in places 2. might be annoyed by having their usual UI
workflow disrupted or with issues with their mandatory CRS not being
properly supported... which could result in a "enough testing this stuff"
reaction.
Having a configurable option might be a good idea... hey maybe that's it,
having the default format choosable in the WMS config panel, and allowing
the admin to choose whatever they please (OL by default).
