[Bart van den Eijnden]

Hey Paul,

the discussion here might help you decide:

http://trac.osgeo.org/openlayers/ticket/1974

tschaub suggested making this an option back then.

Best regards,
Bart

Additionally, there does not seem to be anything in the code to decluster features once they are clustered by the strategy.  I'd like to file a ticket and a patch for this but I am not sure what the correct behaviour *should* be.  The code I gave Mihai to solve his problem replaced the deactivate function with one that also declusters the clustered features.  Does anyone have an opinion on this approach?  I'm wondering if this should be a separate method on the cluster strategy to be called manually, or perhaps there should be an option to declusterOnDeactivate?
