[Users] wms_title not used

[Raffaele Morelli]

Here it is a test url
http://cen.isprambiente.it/~rmorelli/ol/

WMS url is the same, two layers are being fetched: "linee" and
"sostegni_elf".

As you can see "sostegni_elf" does not use wms_title in the GetCapabilities
response (should be "Sostegni ELF").

BTW "Linee" an "linee" both works, so case insensitive.

Am I missing something? Code is taken from GeoExt examples page (mostly
layer tree). Must say that I am quite new to GeoExt.
