feature-id in getfeatureinfo requests

[Daniel Morissette]

Or pehaps try

METADATA
    "gml_featureid" "_index"
END

as suggested in bug 1413, comment #1:
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1413#c1

I don't think this is mentioned anywhere in the docs, if this really 
works then a note about this should be added to the gml_featureid defn' 
at 
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/docs/howto/wfs_server/?searchterm=gml_featureid
