Using trunk code, the use of MarkersSymbolizer seems to prevent shields from appearing (in areas covered by markers). Using clear-label-cache="yes" has no effect.

Oddly, the markers seem to play well TextSymbolizer and PointSymbolizer, only ShieldSymbolizer seems to be affected.

In my opinion, markers should never prevent a shield from appearing on top of them. If that is not possible, then at least we should support the new "ignore-placement" flag on MarkersSymbolizer.
