OK, sorry I linked to a motivating example that actually wasn't exactly 
the same as the use case I have -- I want a single image to play well 
with other artists' zorder. This patch does handle that scenario. I 
simply was too quick choosing this example out of the email history to 
justify the patch.

So now the question for me is what is this option_image_nocomposite is 
so that I can generalize the patch to both when it's True and False. 
 From the emails here, (my only knowledge on it so far) it seems it has 
something to do with the capabilities of the renderer rather than a 
run-time option selected by the user. I'll dig a little deeper into this 
option and see if my patch can deal with other cases, too. Stay tuned...
