If you look at the WMTS spec [1], section E.4, Page 105, the
GoogleMapsCompatible tile matrix set is defined for zoom levels 0 to
18. At the higher zoom level, with a pixel size of 0.5971.. meters. It
seems that who defined the tile matrix set, Google or OGC, didn't
think the projection makes sense at a lower scale denominator.

So I wonder how can you seed past zoom level 18 to start with (oh, by
looking at it I see the gwc seed form do present the option of seeding
up to zoom level 21, but that's just because the other gridset,
EPSG:4326 - or GlobalCRS84Scale as per the spec - is defined up to
zoom level 21, and the gwc UI is not smart enough. Note there's a note
on it though that it's a very basic interface that doesn't check for
correctness).

If you actually need to seed past zoom level 18 though, you can define
your own GridSet, call it My900913 or something, and copy the
resolutions defined in the spec up to zoom level 18, then double/half
that depending on whether you're defining the gridset based on
resolutions or scale denominators.

Hope that helps,
Gabriel
