Does the order of layer requests in a WMS request affect the order they
are drawn? It doesn't seem to.  It appears that only the order in the map
file matters, but isn't the client supposed to be able to alter the 
layering of layers based on the order in the layers= directive?

You're right, the order of layers in the 'LAYERS' parameter of a WMS request 
should define the order in which they are drawn, but at the moment MapServer has 
no easy way to reorder layers dynamically.

It's something that needs to be fixed.

Fixe the layer order in WMS. Using map->layerorder array.
