Hello,
the situation of name display for t at h map is bad and did not improve for
some time now.
I would suggest to switch to another approach. Separate the current tiles
dataset into a captionless dataset and into a capion dataset and render
the caption dataset using a more generic approach. E.g. we could move the
caption generation of some layers into the lowzoom stuff, so only one data
set is used and the handling problem of tile switches vanishs.
This BTW would also allow supporting localized maps and other forms of
overlays.
Ciao
