I have done another round of research and revised the page accordingly.

A couple of design decisions of note:
- use of ServiceInfo and ResourceInfo from the start
- use of Memento to allow for hosting application to preserve state
- breakdown of TileServer, TileMap, TileSet as per OSGeo reference model
- TileRange serving as a async request that can smoothly be hosted ontop 
of a cache, progress monitor reports back as tiles are avaialble, Set of 
GridCoverage is always available and valid (just may be transparent or 
approx before load is completed)
