[OpenLayers-Users] feature with graphic and text

[Andreas Hocevar]

Currently labels in OpenLayers are always rendered on top of all
features - there is no API way to control their order or to make them
appear below features.

You cannot set the css class of the text, but you can use the
following properties to control the appearance of the labels:

 * fontColor - {String} The font color for the label, to be provided like CSS.
 * fontOpacity - {Number} Opacity (0-1) for the label
 * fontFamily - {String} The font family for the label, to be provided
like in CSS.
 * fontSize - {String} The font size for the label, to be provided like in CSS.
 * fontStyle - {String} The font style for the label, to be provided
like in CSS.
 * fontWeight - {String} The font weight for the label, to be provided
like in CSS.
