At the very few cases when I really use FlightGear for simulated flying - in contrast to just firing it off and to check if everything looks and works as predicted - I'm hardly in the need to search for waypoints :-) Therefore it _might_ be helpful, in order to convince people to check such function, to give a short abstract of a use scenario .... but I could be wrong on this one.
