Ok. How do you make GWC stack the geometry tiles from different layers. Does it assume calling the GWC endpoint url directly with the list of layers defined in the request?

I currently do it by means of env variables which filter geometric or label parts within one style. The style is more complicated than it could be with your desired solution but I guess the result is the same, isn't it?

Re: [Geoserver-users] New feature request: meta-tiles greater than 256x256 in size
I currently have 7 layers (and there will be more added later on). So for the labeling to work proper I would have to setup 7*7=49 label layers which is a bit more than "a bit of setup".

Re: [Geoserver-users] New feature request: meta-tiles greater than 256x256 in size
You can have the separate label layer for each layer you are labeling, that way users can turn them on/off for each layer. A bit of setup but we use this trick and it works well, also useful for more control over label placement.

I guess it could be done, it's a matter of someone coding it, and probably adding a parameter to control the tile size (within reason, on the fly meta-tiling keeps tiles in memory for a handful of seconds, there is no caching). A possible alternative is to actually put a tile cache behind the requests, you can still use WMS request as long as "direct integration" is on in the "caching defaults" and your WMS request align to the tiles.
