Hi Andrea,

okay here is a little explanation.
The VectorToRaster process was only a test of useability of using 
WPS-Transformation in raster symbolizer.
My task is a distribution map or heatmap of point-vector-based data.
So I found this blog 
http://geo-solutions.blogspot.com/2011/01/developers-corner-have-your-sld.html 
and thought this will be an good solution.
Now I will produce an panchromatic image in my own geoserver wps and 
colorize it with SLD raster symbolization. Okay it would be possible 
produce RGB(A) image in wps a well, but so I'm flexible in SLD with the 
presentation.
Now I can produce my heatmap in all WMS output formats that perform 
raster images.

I tested the sld with both version. 2.1.3 and nightly build from 
yesterday. :-)
In nightly build version it works now.

Regards
Nikolai
