 > Unfortunately, after I change feature's label through it's properties,
 label & halo on the screen do not update properly. It seems that only halo
 is being re-rendered. On feature change, I am also forcing vector layer
 refresh and redraw but with no success. I am using FireFox and Chrome.

 I would like to see this fixed too but it's hackable by first changing the
 label to an empty string, redraw(), changing the label to the new string
 then redraw() once again. Clumsy, I know, but it does mean that the patch
 can be used in its current state.
