So this is mostly useful for streets which are shown with very wide lines in
which the labels fit, and not so much for rivers like I wanted to use it
for?

I use it for rivers and streams like this:

  LAYER
    NAME "Rivers"
    STATUS DEFAULT
    DATA "rivers"
    TYPE LINE
    TILEINDEX "tgrindex"
    MAXSCALE 150100.0
    LABELITEM "NAME"
    LABELMAXSCALE 50100.0
    TRANSPARENCY ALPHA
    CLASS
      NAME "Rivers and Streams"
      STYLE
        COLOR 153 179 204
        WIDTH 1
        ANTIALIAS TRUE
      END
      LABEL
        ANGLE FOLLOW
        FONT "arial"
        TYPE TRUETYPE
        POSITION AUTO
        SIZE 7
        BUFFER 4
        COLOR 0 0 255
        ANTIALIAS TRUE
        PARTIALS FALSE
        MINDISTANCE 250
        MINFEATURESIZE 10
      END
    END
  END
