Does the plugin download several tiles at the same time? I hope this does not place too much load on the servers. Even with the old WMS plugin the Landsat WMS server was sometimes very slow or down because of overload. If the load gets higher this might annoy the people who run a WMS server. > The new version could be downloaded from: [...] I will be in holidays for the next two weeks.

If there was a configurable delay you could set the delay to 0 to get the tiles downloaded immediately. I, personally, would set the delay to something like 2 seconds > The tiles are downloaded only if it's zoomed enough, so if you want to > look around without downloading new tiles, then just zoom out a little.

When I stop at some place only to release the mouse button, move the mouse to the other end of the screen and then press the button again, there is no need to start downloading this tile. I think I had to zoom out very much to stop the automatic downloading. Regarding zoom and automatic downloading I see a different problem. I know one WMS server that returns white images if I zoomed in too much. Normally I zoom out enough before manually downloading images, then I zoom in to draw or check objects. In this zoom level I do not want any downloads because it would fill the area with white images. To prevent this problem with your plugin I would need a server specific limit for the zoom level or image resolution. When I have zoomed in too much the plugin should either not download any tiles or download tiles with the maximum resolution available for this server.
