All,

I'd like to thank Ian Turton for his assistance with an issue I had regarding a 
lat/lon grid with labels "just inside the box". His suggestions ultimately led 
me to my final implementation.  I have attached a screenshot (layer preview 
screen) of my lat/lon grid as well as one of the SLDs that governs it.

I generated 8 shape files using the code from MMQGIS [1] plugin for Lat/lon 
lines at 20° 10° 5° 2.5° 1° .5° .25° .1°.  I then ingested the shapefiles into 
a PostgreSQL/PostGIS database, updated the SRID and renamed the geometry field 
from "geom" to "the_geom".  I created one SLD per layer/table exposed based on 
the zoom levels listed at the bottom of the layer preview screen allowing each 
layer to display ~2 times before dropping off.  The final layer at .1° is the 
final layer and is used for the remaining zoom levels.  I used a slightly 
modified decimal degrees to degrees script [2] to generate the labels.
