[WFS] Set max features to 0

[Clint Johnson]

Hi guys,

Is it possible to disable a layer's contents from appearing in a 
GetFeature WFS request in terms of a mapping file setting?  If not, then 
can you give any advice reguaring where I can add such functionality 
into the mapserver source code?

I essentially want to have a mechanism where I "protect my data"; that 
is, where a complete graphical representation of my data (aka map) can 
be viewed via a GetMap WMS request, yet be private/encapsulated by means 
of hidden to WFS request (in terms of not returning any features for a 
WFS request).  And selective in the sense that this functionality can be 
applied on a per layer basis without having to completely disable WFS 
altogether.

I've looked at the mapserver source code (all occurrences of 
MAXFEATURES/maxfeatures) and I see a lot of checks for >0 -- which 
reaffirms my observation that "MAXFEATURES 0" is the same as not 
specifying MAXFEATURES at all.  My guess is that anything less than 1 
(and by default -1) is being used denote MAXFEATURES as being not set.

Thanks,
Clint
