Hi,

I can see from the logs that there are some OpenLayers applications reading our 
integrated GWC (../geoserver/gwc/service/wms?...) by using WMS-C protocol and 
having "&tiled=true" while some other applications use parameter as 
"&tiled=yes".  I can also see that developers have copied the base URL and 
applications may send request including either "&tiled=yes" or "&tiled=true" 
also to non-cached WMS (.../geoserver/wms?)

Are "tiled=yes" and "tiled=true" just synonyms or should we try to reach the 
developers and tell them to use always just one of the alternatives? Situation 
has probably been like this for a long time so I think that using tiled=yes or 
tiled=true does not make any difference but I would like to know it for sure.

TLDR: tiled=true gives permission for GeoServer to return an error if GetMap 
request does not line up with defined tile set.

"If a request is made with tiled=true, a tiling WMS server may respond with 
HTTP 404 or 500 to indicate that a request fails to meet the recommendations 
given here."

GeoServer will not do that, if tiles origin is not provided it will simply 
assume it cannot do metatling, and treat it as a simple request.
In fact tiled/tilesorigin are meant for clients that are just using simple WMS, 
but insist on making tiled requests, as opposed
to clients that are WMS-C aware (use GWC directly for those)

Cheers
Andrea
