Hi,
I'm wondering what the reactions would be to removing completely the
rtree indexing code from the shapefile datastore.
Rationale:
- it's not standard, opposed to the quadtree .qix format that is
   used by ogr/mapserver as well
- I never used it, but rumors are that it's not really working
   either?
- it's sucking significant built time

In short, it does not seem to be pulling its weight and no one
has touched it in... years?

Opinions?
Cheers
Andrea
