we aim to improve the - still experimental - location and map options in the next versions, so that it can become an official feature at some point, after being stale for years, with unfixed bugs etc…
the first step to this direction is to use the same codebase and map on all platform, so that the limited developer resources can be used more efficient. this is what we did with this release.
and surely, among other things that come to mind, we’ll consider to add an option to either change the tile sources, or maybe even allow the user to use a completely different map-engine
