[OpenLayers-Users] layers drawing order

[Guillaume Sueur]

1. yes, but it should speed up the whole thing, not indicate a specific 
drawing order shouldn't it ? But, sure, I should do that anyway.

2. that will change the organisation of the map, which is not the goal 
either.

would it be difficult to add a layer drawingOrder option and make the 
map render them in that order ?

Thanks

Guillaume
