[WFS Client] Incorrect use of wms_request_method metadata?

Reported by: dmorissette Owned by: jmckenna@…
Priority: high Milestone: 4.2 release
Component: Documentation - MapServer Version: 4.1
Severity: normal Keywords:
Cc: jmckenna@…

Description 

The WFS client code in mapwfslayer.c looks for metadata called
"wms_request_method" to decide on the method (GET or POST) to use for the request.

Should it not be using "wfs_request_method"?

Also, a note about this needs to be added to the WFS client howto, and also a
mention that the default is POST unless the metadata is set to GET.

I think this is a priority fix for 4.2 unless this would break existing apps.
