I also think that - what Anita wants - is a special case of a cluster
renderer (one that actually does not cluster, but only count how many
features are at the same geometry). To have this as a special option of
the displacement renderer would be a quite misleading ...
But the cluster renderer also allows for a search radius (similar to the
heatmap) - while the displacement renderer only looks at features at the
exact same location (I know there is now a tolerance, but this was only
added later). The displacement renderer was originally designed to show
people who live at the very same address.
I'd also be interested to see such a cluster renderer - actually since a
couple of years - but it was never that important to my employer that we
invested in it.
