[Chameleon] WMC 1.1.0 support

[Paul Spencer]

IIRC, Chameleon uses MapScript to load and save context documents.   
When it loads a context, it loads it via mapscript into a separate  
map object and then copies the layers into the session map object ...  
as long as the layer copy mechanism in mapserver copies scale  
dependencies then Chameleon should not need any updates.

Cheers

Paul
