functionality for allow-overlap for different layers but not inside the one #429

Hi! I ran into some difficulties. I have icons on the map and a caption with the name. To display them, I use the shield type because when two icons intersect, I want the icon to be hidden along with the text. The problem is that there are a lot of icons on the map and they completely hide the street names. I would like street names not to be hidden if they intersect with an icon or text. How do I achieve this behavior? However, I don't want the icons to be drawn on top of each other if I enable allow-overlap and i don't want the road names to be draw on the top of each others.

You are using CartoCSS, correct? Basically the only way is to have two separate CartoCSS styles and VectorTileLayer instances.
