Sure, it could be considered. Probably would work like the GAP parameter
does w/regards
to line symbols. Could file a feature request?

Thanks Steve.

Anyway I think it would be great to have this feature in a future
version, don't you? :)

That's not an option as the code sits. You'd have to break the linear
features into smaller
features ahead of time. MapServer can (via the MINFEATUREDISTANCE
parameter) weed
out duplicates with that type of data structure...
