You could also try filtering on the back-end, either by using a GeoServer
SQLView or a DB view.  This of course depends on having a suitable back-end.

Other than that I'm out of ideas.  Filtering by area dataset does seem like
something that would be nice to have more transparently available.  Perhaps
by using some crazy hack involving rendering transformations...  8^)
