Description

I'd like to use the "cassini-gl-style" tile server from Makinga Corpus. Is there currently a way of doing that with the Maps Extension?

(I also use SemanticMediaWiki, if this is relevant or helpful.)

Research direction

Start by inspecting the Maps Extension's current tile-server configuration and documentation, then compare it with the cassini-gl-style tile server linked in the issue. Determine whether alternate tile servers are already supported or what configuration is needed; done means a map can load tiles from that server.
