So I don't know what Anton had in mind, but from my experience last
week, what *I* would like to see is:

 - when downloading the GPS data, do something very similar to the
"dive download" window, where you list the dives that have matched up
to new GPS information *before* applying the state.

 - but in addition to the dive list (and the checkboxes so that you
can select to use downloaded GPS locations for only a subset of the
dives), you'd have a text-entry box to name the new sites.

IOW, I think the dive computer download dialogue really works as a
good example of what the GPS download should do. It's a very similar
multi-phase operation: first we download the information (without
actually applying it), then we select the dives we want to add info
for, and then we apply it. The only difference would be that we'd have
that text-field for naming the dive sites as we go along.

(Which wouldn't be wrong for the divecomputer download dialogue
either, for that matter - maybe there is room for some sharing of
setup code).
