[Qgis-user] Label rendering

[Larry Shaffer]

Hi Les,

With the current implementation, labeling is always draw last, on top of
all other symbology layers. This is due to the fact that the automated
solution for placing labels is done after all layers have registered their
features. Otherwise, labeling would need to be solved prior to rendering
any symbology of any layer, which would slow the overall apparent speed of
rendering in many cases.

Still, it is possible to implement labeling per layer. Just hasn't been
attempted, yet.
