@pakb Would it not be better to also allow embed to be an alias to embed=true ? This would reduce a bit the size of the url.

@pakb switching infobox of a feature to the header don't work, the infobox disappear and the user need to refresh the windows to see it again.

@pakb After some thoughts if we need to touch the URL parameter logics, I think it would be wise to try to simplify it. It seems a bit complex to me especially with the keepValueInUrlWhenEmpty flag which is used in several place in code and not always straightforward. I'm thinking of a more generic way to handle parameters, something as follow:

1. Add a defaultValue member to the AbstractParamConfig
2. Change the keepValueInUrlWhenEmpty to keepInUrlWhenDefault
3. Always add the param to the store, either from query if found or using the defaultValue. In this logic no need to check for keepInUrlWhenDefault
4. When writing the URL, only add non default param unless keepInUrlWhenDefault is true
5. Make sure that boolean param without value are treated as true same as boolean param with value 1

This should allow to have the embed flag in url without value to keep url short. It would also allow to have embed=true or embed=1. We could also have a flag which is per default true if needed in future. Maybe we can have a quick call to discuss this idea ?

Should be as you have suggested, I've modified the URL param parser so that flags can be set to true just by being present in the URL (no need to =true anymore) and also changed the logic and replaced keepValueInUrlWhenEmpty with a keepInUrlWhenDefault

@pakb I guess the old embed (old viewer) translation to the new viewer will be done via redirect ? embedeed.html -> #?embed, am I correct. Has it already be done ? If not is there already a ticket ?

that's a good point, as it was a different HTML endpoint in mf-geoadmin3 I think we might need to tackle that on the proxy/redirect side of things (what Bernie was working on recently), I'll create a ticket so that we do not forget to deal with it.
