Sigh - at least I'm consistent, needed this 6 years ago, and still need it!

Looks like it might go in 6.0 if some can tackle it. It looks like we 
already have code to do this as part of the labeling code, it just needs 
to get added in the rendering chain.

OK, back to the old way of doing this, add length attribute and filter 
on length at different scales.
