    I investigated a bit into embedding metadata into PNG and while we could put stuff in there, it will be incredibly difficult to get the information out again with "standard tools". Due to the lack of specification of PNG metadata, Windows 7 will not show 99.9% of information contained within PNG. Even the PIL library readily discards metainformation when writing out a PNG unless one manually ensures that it is again saved.

    This leaves putting a visual watermark on the figure. I am not sure that this is desirable.

    We just could have a simple information, what we have in Abstract tag of GetCapabilities and show that on the gui.

    That is currently rather readily visible when clicking the view button besides the get_capabilities button.

    As there is already a button where a user gets information about the data, we have to just care on server site to fill in required informations.

    One interested in what he got is requested to click the view button.

    We could think for a future realease to rename or add an info button, which renders the information.
