Something like this should work while we sort out exactly how to release this:

#populated_places_points_2{
  marker-fill:#0099FF;
  marker-line-color:white;
  marker-line-width:1;
  marker-opacity:0.68;
  marker-line-opacity:0.68;
  marker-width:20px;
  marker-placement:point;
  marker-type:ellipse;
  marker-allow-overlap:true;
  text-face-name: "DejaVu Sans Book";
  text-fill:#000;
  text-size:9;
  text-transform:uppercase;
  text-halo-fill:rgba(255,255,255,1);
  text-halo-radius:1;
  text-line-spacing:1;
  text-wrap-width:20;
  text-allow-overlap:true;
  text-name:"[name]";
}

(secret is   text-allow-overlap:true;)
