It is a legacy issue the RFC 91 I think is trying to clean up. Mapserver
<br>
started with rasters and shapefiles, so everything had to be done in <br>
mapserver. As it grew to support more data sources things have changes
<br>
and we are trying to push this kind of filtering back into the data <br>
sources where it can be done efficiently, while still allow other data
<br>
sources that do not support the native filtering to work also work by <br>
having a generic filing ability still built into mapserver.<br>
