WMS layers are tiled in leaflet. It's perfect for basemaps and/or for public access.

But it's not good for some use cases :
- realtime business layers
- private access with custom WMS servers
- layers animations (it's difficult to synchronize tiles animations)

It's implement in openlayers as a "singleTile" option :
http://openlayers.org/dev/examples/single-tile.html

In this mode, the GetMap WMS request must request :
- the exact bounding box of the visible map
- the exact width, height of the visible map

Thanks :-)
