Hello,

I am facing a small problem related to labels.
Due to painter's algorithm if I define a text symbolizer in a low layer, all
the layers above will override the text.
For instance a city park :
First I draw the park polygon shape and its name (same data source).
Then I draw the small water area in the middle of the park (another data
source).
Finally I draw the paths inside the park(a third data source)
As a result, 3 layers, 3 sources and the name of the park is 70% hidden by
the other features ...

An easy fix is to add the name after all the other features but this
involves to load the same shape file (or any other source) twice.

So I wondered if there existed a better way to do it ; a kind of attribute
that will tell the text symbolizer that it will be always on top.

Thank you

Nicolas.
