On a very closly related matter, is there any way to adjust things so that a
decent scale is displayed -- so often I find that I want to know the
distance between 2 points that are 3/4 of the width of the screen appart --

As for distance between points there are some site, I can't think of
them off the top of my head, that let you click on a map and it will
give you the distance.

Interestingly enough, on the Multimap API I originally did a scale bar that used up basically all remaining space until someone pointed out that they're usually "thumb" width so that you can use your thumb multiple times to find a width.
