Jonathon,
I agree that it would be preferable to have a button to choose
a WMTS connection. This would help the user to know for sure which service that
they are selecting. And it would sure help me because my standard base URL is
the same for WMTS and for WMS. However I have been waiting for awhile to see
WMTS working in QGIS so I'm happy to see it here in some (if not an ideal)
fashion.

Is this something that should be documented though? That suggests this is
desired behaviour.
As a user I'd expect QGIS to:
a) Figure it out automatically.
or
b) Have a separate button for WMTS.
Requiring a user to add stuff to the URL is very suboptimal.

Hi Bob,
could you please check that this is correctly documented in the new
manual?
Thanks.
