Lars, thanks, this is pretty much what I was looking for. Very nice. I noticed that the layer "message" is defaulted [1], it shows whether you add it to LAYERS= or not. Maybe it could be removed or at least made optional, it is not so nice to have it there all the time. Another idea would be to add a colored background so that you also see something when you request for strange coordinates. Ideally with a pattern saying "out of bounds" when you leave this planet. This would help all those people who add a badly configured GK3 WMS to a WGS84 and end up 3 million km to the east of this planet...
