Find a way to have 256 color images and antialiasing at the same time
---------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: GEOS-1102
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-1102
             Project: GeoServer
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: WMS
    Affects Versions: 1.5.1
            Reporter: Andrea Aime
            Assignee: Andrea Aime
             Fix For: 1.5.2

At the moment enabling palette=xxx disables antialiasing. This is still nice enough on topp:states map, but looks really bad on tiger:tiger_roads, and in general when line width is > 0.
To achive both, we should find a way to render true color (palette + antialising -> dither, due to a java bug) and then reduce using nearest neighbour, but preserving transparency (that is, only the fully transparent pixels). At the moment I don't know how to do this, but we need to investigate.
