 We was searching a way to control the attributes displayed in a query
 result. After a moment of reflection, we decided to include specifics
 metadatas names inside the mapfile for displayed attributes. (ie.
 query_include_items, query_exclude_items and query_[item]_alias for alias)
 This would follow the approach used in configuring WMS and WFS services.
 If you have a better prefix in mind than "query_*" then send your ideas
 along. We decided this solution because we do not want modify any widget
 for this mapserver feature and we do not want to expose mapfile
 information to the client (JavaScript? code) as a good practice for
 security reasons.(ie. the metadata name for the attributes to be
 displayed)
