Thanks for your insight Lance.  I do think that it should be easy to
do and I would like to understand why only pieces of the information
are included in the JSON representation.  One would assume that at the
very least the JSON object should include enough information to
position and portray its representation.  Unless I am out in left
field here this should be a mimimum requirement.  In my opinion, the
GMAPI needs some improvement in this area and so discussions such as
these are valuable.

Cheers
