I think it is a bug. When I set Raster to CLIP_IMAGE mode, and main raster point dissapears at left edge of view, raster starts to flicker.
I do update raster position on every frame from behavior. This is probably the reason of flickering. When I have turned updates off, all rasters behave the same - ones for which main point is on screen are display correctly. Ones partially hidden on left side (for which CLIP_IMAGE makes a difference) appear and disappear depending on how I move the view. More or less every single pixel of movement makes them appear and dissapear in turn - all are visible or not visible at same moment, independent of their position.

Then move the model at left edge of screen, so only parts of labels are visible and wait a moment - it should flicker a bit. If you rotate model around at edge, you will see a lot more flicker.
