[mapserver-users] Using nquery/mapxy/TOLERANCE/TOLERANCEUNITS

I'd like someone to confirm my understanding of using
nquery/mapxy/TOLERANCE/TOLERANCEUNITS.
GeoMoose v1.6 sets mapxy and imgext (along with mode=nquery and imgsize) CGI
variables when doing an "Identify Feature" operation. I'd like to use
TOLERANCEUNITS PIXELS (and TOLERANCE 3) for my point layer because I think it's
more intuitive over a range of scales (as opposed to TOLERANCEUNITS METERS,
TOLERANCE 500).
This is not possible as using Mapserver's mapxy requires the map file to have
TOLERANCEUNITS METERS to work properly. If I want to use TOLERANCEUNITS PIXELS,
I must use imgxy instead of mapxy because mapserver does not do the conversion
from mapxy mapping coords to imgxy image coords.
Is this correct?
Thanks!
