Hi Vincent,
WMTS support and username/passoword would be useful. I will look at WMTS
standard and try to implement it.
It would be very useful for testing to show me where to register for access.

Stepan,
a short reply offlist, just to react to your improvments to r.in.wms.
First, thanks for involving in Grass...
Last spring I told you I was making heavy use of french cartographic
ressources (www.geoportail.gouv.fr). Last month they set up a new wmts
architecture (replacing a wms-c service), which allows to retrieve
raster data such as orthoimagery, elevation data, and so on.
Unfortunately I could not use your python addon (tell me if I'm wrong)
because wmts queries are based on an APIkey/login/password
authentification system.
I wrote a shell script that does the job, partly running gdal tools. Of
course it's designed for private use, very rough, not much optimized,
but it has the ability to build sequential https requests containing the
right login/password header.
I guess it would be easy to implement that "restricted access header
option" to your module; The thing is I ignore nearly everything of
Python ! let me know if you are interested in developing in this
direction. If so, I can show you where to register for access to ign web
data services, so that you can make tests. Attached is my shell script,
fyi.
Bye,
Vincent
