Okay, the issue then is the behaviour with GPSs which build an 'entry leg' when
activating but off-route, which was the intended behaviour of the current code.
I'm fine with supporting both, the question is if we really need a distinct
intercept mode for leg, and indeed radial, capture in the GPS, and a config
option to control how that works.

Yes, no problem. BTW Dirk I would prefer separate commits for these areas of
course.
