No, you query the GIS data not the map. This is true for the standard CGI application. There
are workarounds. For example, using  MapScript you can post-process the label cache and
use it to answer subsequent queries or create a client side image map. Note that an image
map is not usable with a form <input type="image"...> element.

This is certainly an area that could use some work. Caching the label cache is probably the
best solution.

I believe this is fixed (i.e. legends don't scale) in the new version (out tomorrow!) but I'll
have to check.
