 Fusion uses a GETMAPIMAGE request to render the map image. GETMAPIMAGE
 currently always sets the requiresClipping flag on the renderer to false.
 When a map contains a layer using labels, the renderer will attempt to
 render all the labels even when these are not inside the area being
 rendered. This design is intentional so that tiles rendered will have
 label flowing contiguously across tiles. However, when not tiling, there
 currently is no way to force the renderer to clip which would greatly
 increase performance for the this common case.
