You can certainly display other layers on top of a WMS layer, and apply
labels like that. You can't "modify" it in the sense that you send a
request and you get back an image produced by the remote server, but
once you get that image it's yours to do whatever you like with it.
It's common for WMS layers to be used as basemaps with other annotation
and data layers on top of them.

Hi all,
Not sure if this is directly related to mapserver, but if anyone
knows of a WMS listserv ...) Anyways I was wondering if anyone knows if
there is a way of modifying a WMS layer locally? I'm trying to
superimpose labels on a wms layer that doesn't have any.
thx,
Paul
