Regarding the new "raiseOnDrag" feature: It would be useful to have a getRaiseOnDrag() method (for Marker class) for determining whether this feature is on or off. This would allow a custom class such as MarkerWithLabel (see <http:// code.google.com/p/google-maps-utility-library-v3/wiki/Libraries>) to raise the label associated with the marker only if raiseOnDrag is true.
It would also be useful if there was a Marker method (getMarkerDiv()?) that could be used to determine the DIV in which the marker icon is drawn. That way, if a drag originated in the associated label, the marker could be raised programmatically by changing the CSS 'top' parameter. (This would also allow the bug described at <http:// code.google.com/p/google-maps-utility-library-v3/issues/detail? id=24&colspec=ID%20Type%20Status%20Priority%20Fixed%20Owner%20Summary %20Stars> to be fixed!) And... for bonus marks... expose a constant that contains the number of pixels by which the marker is raised. I think the value is now 20 pixels, but the number should be provided as a constant.
