Hi Mikel and Maning, Who has access to customizing the interface? A possible wish item is to have a traditional form for people to enter an issue in case they don't know how to pinpoint the location on a map. But I think this *might* require a separate database table so an alternative to that is to let people place an approximate location and then have others (or admin-level people) move the location to the correct spot.
