Hello all!

I'm making WMS-layers from up to 300 parameters, each on on its own 
layer. Data comes from "Web Feature Server (NG)"-store (Cascaded Stored 
Query). Data is updated daily.

Not all parameters are present all the time, typically only 10 of those 
parameters have values, but occasionally more parameters appear in data. 
Each parameter have only about 5 data points so dataset is not big.

I could enter those 300 layers by hand limiting one parameter to one 
layer by giving static value to parameter in Cascaded Stored Query 
Configuration. This would result large amount of empty layers, but 
allows client to have list of all possible layers.


To prevent empty layers and long layer list, we consider using Custom 
Dimensions. By updating dimension list dynamically using REST, user 
would only see list of layers with data.

It seems that WFS-data layers can not have custom dimensions, only Time 
and Elevation. Documantation and examples of coverage type layers using 
custom dimensions can be found, but none using WFS!

I downloaded source code to examine this and it also suggest that only 
Time and Elevation are supported.

We are using geoserver 2.7.1.1

Have anyone used Custom Dimensions with WFS-data, is it possible?
