Hi Chris, Thanks for the reply. Is it not possible (logically at least) to have wrapDateLine=true and displayOutsideMaxExtent=false? This seems to make a lot of sense for the very common case of EPSG:4326.
Alternatively is there a method I can override to prevent tiles outside the latitude range [-90,90] being loaded (e.g. by subclassing Layer.WMS)? I'm keen to do this because having 8 requests to my WMS server (even if 6 of them are quickly rejected) not only causes increased load on my server but also uses up some of the web browser's image loading threads, slowing up my application considerably.
