Well you can know where you are in the building from AP scan monitoring.
~ In an office building for example you might go to a meeting room or a
cafeteria and want that as a different "place", but you never get to the
open sky moving around between these places.

Fair point about different rooms. However, attempts to locate yourself up to room precision will fail a lot -- the range of one WiFi AP isn't really confined within the walls of a room, so just walking the corridor past the meeting room or sitting in an adjacent room would trigger the meeting room profile. I don't see how it could be made to work up to room precision. It seems to me that building precision is the best that's practically possible.
