I was thinking about his approach over lunch. However, it seems that
once I go down this path I might as well skip calling Mapserver at all
and simply let my WMS CGI generate the requested image by calling IDL.
Unless I'm missing something (which is quite possible), I don't see
where Mapserver provides the ability to control the raster portrayal.
