So in a MapServer itemquery, is GetFeature() or GetNextFeature() being

when would you do a GetFeature() by FID?

Rich,

Hopefully we aren't abusing the postgis list too much here!

MapServer uses GetNextFeature() for drawing layers, but uses GetFeature()
by fid for query related stuff which (unfortunately) uses a two pass approach
that makes it very slow in some contexts.

Best regards,
