ESRI WMS cascading problem
--------------------------

- Jukka, from the mapserver users list:

ESRI has decided not to follow the standard and has closed the bug, 
NIM104744, we submitted about not decoding a plus symbol ‘+’ to a space. 
  Their solution is for everyone else to encode all spaces as %20 and to 
ignore http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3986.  They have closed the bug and 
listed it as a known limit.

http://support.esri.com/en/bugs/nimbus/TklNMTA0NzQ0

So, in order for Mapserver to consume ESRI WMS services, with spaces in 
the name, the spaces have to be encoded as %20.

- Jukka noted that this can cause problems with cascading WMS
- Ben suggested adding a note to the user guide
