I believe OSM is pretty decent, but 100% correct? Of course not.

Well. Then I come along, add an amenity=cafe, under a CCBYSA2.0-license. But
at the wrong spot. And you, having chosen an OdBL-license, decides to move it
to the correct position. Under what license is that node?
This isn't going to be easy, hardly possible? :)

3) Change the color for my own GXS tracks, so that I see what is my own and
what is downloaded.
4) If things get too cluttered from GPS points, it's easy to hide the

Map_features-page. And without it, it would be pretty much impossible to

I'm no expert on the inner workings in either of the renderers, but to
