With 8.2, the only way I can think of would be use PostGIS something like:
LAYER
NAME 'mylayer'
CONNECTIONTYPE POSTGIS
DATA "shape FROM (SELECT ST_GeomFromText('%geometry%') AS shape)"
VALIDATION
'geometry' 'a regex for valid WKT'
END
...
END
You'd have to be very careful with the regex to validate the WKT but this
might work.
This makes me wonder if adding some context-sensitive escaping
capabilities to the runtime substitution could be a nice enhancement.
