Would it make sense to add this functionality to MapServer? Finding
scale breakpoints is a hassle indeed!

I've always used a simple CGI template containing the [scaledenom] parameter.
I plan to simplify this for MS4W users.
Jan, Jeff,
If you have ideas of an easier mechanism to help determine scales that
you would like to see added in MapServer then please share them... I'd
be happy to help improve this.
I always setup a trivial OpenLayers viewer with the scale control turned
on and it displays the scale over the map. This has the benefit, that I
can make changes to the mapfile and see them in OL by just a slight pan
to refresh the map. I use singleTile: true, ratio:1 on the layer.
This has the advantage of bringing the scale value and the map together
so you can better visualize the changes and see the effect of changes.
