Hi Ari,

It seems to me that the WCS driver could benefit from some love.
That would be a good initiative!

I could begin with the gdalinfo WCS:... to list the subdatasets. I guess that's enough for some time.


In the wished feature list, I could add:

* improve test coverage, which is really low currently:

One issue we have for testing is the lack of stable & reliable servers.
One potential way of addressing this is to use a local HTTP server, like I did 
recently with the /vsis3/ (and similar)
subsystems, where you can add stub endpoints. An extra advantage is that you 
can also easily test error situations.
See
- example of server start and end
        https://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/browser/trunk/autotest/gcore/vsis3.py#L126
       https://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/browser/trunk/autotest/gcore/vsis3.py#L1906
- example of installation of HTTP answers to expected requests:
        https://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/browser/trunk/autotest/gcore/vsis3.py#L1258

I think the way to go is to use local server with hand-made response variations and that looks like the needed infrastructure.


* WCS 2.0 support
