Hi David, I don't know about this feature in GeoServer, but in the setting you describe, it could be possible to guess the ID values of the geometries and write a script that downloads them individually and merges them into a single file. So I would suggest you don't use an incremental number but some sort of hashed value or GUID as identifier. Another idea would be to temporarilly block IP addresses that send many requests.

If I wanted to make it impossible to add this layer including all of its features to a map/file (and make the data easy to re-employ for any purpose) would this be achievable consistently with this setting? It seems that way, I haven't been able to make a getFeature request return more than one feature, and I'd like to be sure there's no known other way. (The question comes from a need for specific singular geometries in a public web map while trying to make the whole collection of geometries unavailable) Thanks for any pieces of advice : )
