I guess my comment now is that this implementation of restrictToBBox (without an RFC) has effectively created a different FDO provider that had different capabilities. The WFS provider publishes it's capabilities as ExpressionType_Basic with ConditionType_Comparison
as well as ConditionType_Spatial.</div>
<div style="font-family: Aptos, Aptos_EmbeddedFont, Aptos_MSFontService, Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);" class="elementToProof">
However, when the restrictToBBox=True the ONLY ConditionType is Spatial. The problem is that the capabilities are at the provider level and not at the connection string and so applications (like commercial AutoCAD Map) and others will present a WFS interface
that allows property queries to be created but these will never be executed - resulting in a user experience of different resultsset than specified/expected.</div>

<div style="direction: ltr;">I had some time to look at the issue in question and if we trace back to the original commit message in
<a data-auth="NotApplicable" class="OWAAutoLink" id="OWA1bbbddb1-d0dd-c83f-30cf-5ce5f94787a5" href="https://trac.osgeo.org/fdo/changeset/8194">

</div>
<div style="direction: ltr; margin: 0px 0px 0px 40px;">WFS Provider: Some WFS servers support BBOX filter only, but don't support normal filter. Some other servers support normal filter only, but don't support BBOX filter. In order to handle the 2 kinds of
WFS servers, we add a new configuration item RestrictToBBox. If it is true, FDO WFS provider will generate BBOX filter for queries. Otherwise, it will generate normal filter as before</div>
<div style="direction: ltr;"><br>
Based on my interpretation of that commit message, I believe this would be intentional behavior. This setting seems to only be enabled to handle a specific kind of WFS server which if your example WFS server is producing the correct results when this setting
is false then perhaps it's just a case of not turning on this setting?</div>

As MGS is by it's nature as a web mapping viewer, it applies a BBox / Intersects query for every web map page request.</div>

The issue is that if the new format RestrictToBBox = True is applied to the WFS query connection parameters then all property/aspatial filters are stripped/ignored when sent to the WFS server; resulting in an unexpected return of ALL data within the map window.</div>

See sample MGP package attached, based on open British Geological Survey data. The attached screen grab shows the WebLayout preview highlighting in red Basalt lithography (use the WebLayout as it zooms/centres to a sensible scale and area). The initial display
used the connection format WITHOUT the BBox parameter.</div>
