Hmm does this do something smart for the location of the tile-cache directory? 
If not, 
then what cache-dir will it use if I feed it an arbitrary repo uri?

Right now it's quite tricky to integrate with foxtrotgps' repo management 
functionality, 
since I have no access to all attributes of the repos.

Yes that works. However I still receive button_press and button_release events 
when I 
click on OSD elements (and thus always get the fine popup window all the time 
;-).

Yes that would be awesome. I could use it too for generic line drawing (for 
instance for 
the distance functionality in foxtrotgps). Would be even better if there's a 
way the 
specify color or drawing style, so multiple tracks can be better distinguished.

Haven't seen this anymore with local builds.
