Indeed it's something that PAL does not currently support. But I agree
that it is sometimes useful to label all features even though that
would produce overlaps.

We could improve PAL to place labels in two steps:
1. label features from layers where all features must be labeled,
without collision detection
2. label features from the rest of layers with usual placement
algorithm, labels from step 1 act as obstacles
