I was hoping I wouldn't need to do anything that was
1. This complicated; and
2. This wasteful.
Presumably, after I do all that tedious converting to latlongs, the framework
is going to convert them back to screen coordinates. Then when the user
resizes, I'm going to erase them (because they're now the wrong size),
recalculate all the latlongs, then the framework re-uncalculates them, and so
on.
This seems enormously wasteful and presumably won't work as well with larger
numbers of markers.
