Hi, OpenJUMP takes WMS urls with or withour ending "?" or ending "&" without troubles so there must be code for handling these cases. I am not sure if you have also copied the behaviour about what happens if server is sending another url for GetMaps than what was used for GetCapabilities. For my mind it is done in a right way in OpenJUMP. If GetMap url is different than GetCapabilities url the user is asked which one should be used. Reason for this is that the different GetMap url can be correct (for example load balancer is forwarding GetMap request to several servers) but it can also be a misconfiguration on the server side.
