PerpendicularOffset swaps sides if line of the angle exceeds a limit

                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-4020
             Project: GeoServer
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Global
    Affects Versions: 2.0.2
            Reporter: Edward Mac Gillavry
            Assignee: Andrea Aime

Trying to label the borders on the map with the names of the administrative 
subdivisions following the borders (a la Google Maps). In PostGIS, I made sure 
all borders are lines and are being drawn in the same direction (ST_ForceRHR). 
In my SLD, I defined a negative PerpendicularOffset in my LinePlacement to have 
all labels drawn to the right-hand side of the line, i.e. within the borders 
(see attachment example_sld.xml).

On the map, I find that the labels swap from the inside of the borders to the 
outside when the angle of the line exceeds a certain threshold. In other words, 
despite the negative value of the PerpendicularOffset, the labels are drawn to 
the left-hand side of the line (see attachment forceLeftToRight_true.png). 
Throwing in the VendorOption "forceLeftoRight=false", the labels do stay inside 
the borders and the PerpendicularOffset is interpreted correctly, but the 
labels show up upside down (see attachment forceLeftToRight_false.png).

For your geographic bearings: three provinces in the Netherlands come together. 
Flevoland is to the North, Noord-Holland to the West and Utrecht to the South.
