Comment:

 My one and only question to ask is: Did this feature actually work in
 Maestro 2.1.4?

 I say that because what we are doing is modifying an XML configuration
 document, and I don't think that MapGuide does tag substitution on XML
 configuration documents, meaning MG_DATA_PATH_ALIAS wouldn't be recognised
 if it comes from an XML config document, and that despite Maestro 2.1.4
 producing a syntatically correct XML document, it does nothing.

 If this worked in Maestro 2.1.4 and layers you make off of it produce the
 expected results, then I more than happy to put this feature back in. But
 I personally never worked much with the GDAL raster provider so I couldn't
 verify whether this feature works as originally intended.
