Hey,

looking again, and playing with the bing-tiles-restrictedzoom.html
example from my patch, I don't see any issues with restrictedMinZoom.
What exactly makes you think that this is a solution inferior to
minZoomLevel?

It's probably because I'm using the PanZoomBar control. restrictedMinZoom is having an inconsistent effect on the zoom slider. The slider doesn't always stop at restrictedMinZoom and you still have the additional levels showing on the slider that you cannot access. I'd like to be able to make the switch between google and bing seamless. In the old VirtualEarth layers I could achieve that. I'm just trying to recreate what I already have, but make it smoother and faster with the new features.

Does it make sense to have a numZoomLevels parameter without minZoomLevel? To me it makes sense to be able to restrict zooms to a range and have the zoom slider show only that range. The slider is not responding well to the restrictedMinZoom parameter. I can drag the slider below the restrictedMinZoom. I think that might confuse people using the map. I have no need for the first six zooms, don't want to show those levels, but I do need detail, right down to zoom 21. The slider is rather large with all 21 zooms.

Maybe I'm being pedantic :-) Maybe I will just hide the slider.
