There is not much to tell. You need a program, which gets the URL and
returns an image file. I have written webkit-image as a cross-plattform
software for that purpose although for me gnome-web-photo works fine. The
only task is to install that software and choose the correct one in wms
plugin settings.
I can't understand the troubles MacOS users have to compile or
install such a simple QT software. But I also can't help here. I don't use
Mac. For Windows it was very easy to supply a download archive containing
everything necessary. The same is true for Linux where I make RPM's. It
is the task of MacOs users to supply the same for MacOs.

We can't include a downloader in the plugin except someone writes a Java
software to do so.
