I'd like to point out that there are use case for "resetting image to
default processing" (including gps data) and that use case is handled
by DT, but I don't really see a use case for resetting only GPS data.

GPS data is usually either set by the camera at capture time and not
touched, or set globally by GPX and not touch. There are some cases
when you tweak image position a little and there are cases when you
want no GPS data event when the original image had it (which is
covered by D&D to the filmstrip) but I don't see a case where we want
to reset back to RAW position. It's certainly not the case when the
pos was set/overwritten by GPX and when manually tweaking the original
position doesn't really matter since it was incorrect to start with.

The only use-case I see is playing around with the map feature and
wanting to reset what you borked, but that's a really marginal
use-case

i might be missing something here but i'd really like to have a valid
use-case for that before cluttering the UI
