I should add that it's probably not feasible to use FreeMarker templates,
since we have a lot of layers defined, and in some cases we don't have the
ability to modify the server configuration.  Also, we also want to be able
to retrieve the geometry via GetFeatureInfo in some situations.  Ideally
there would be some kind of query parameter that could be added to control
how the geometry is returned in the response.
