Hi! First of all (just to clarify the need), why would you want to turn of the nonsquare behaviour? Second, in my opinion this is a client issue, not a server issue. If the client wants to request a image with nosquare pixels, feel free to do so. Third, this behaviour is mandatory in the WMS specification, see chapter 7.2.3.8 of the 1.1.1 spesification.
The required WIDTH and HEIGHT parameters specify the size in integer pixels of the map image to be produced. WIDTH specifies the number of pixels to be used between the minimum and maximum X values (inclusive) in the BBOX parameter, while HEIGHT specifies the number of pixels between the minimum and maximum Y values. The returned picture, regardless of its return format, shall have exactly the specified width and height in pixels. In the case where the aspect ratio of the BBOX and the ratio width/height are different, the WMS shall stretch the returned map so that the resulting pixels could themselves be rendered in the aspect ratio of the BBOX. In other words, it should be possible using this definition to request a map for a device whose output pixels are themselves non-square, or to stretch a map into an image area of a different aspect ratio.
