It will not be discarded if it has a name=* ! :-)

Also, mapnik does a cheap bbox intersect to see which objects are likely 
to be in the tile to be rendered, instead of an expensive intersect. 
Depending on the size and position of your sea polygons, its bbox and 
the bbox of the tile being rendered could overlap even for tiles far inland.
