Sort of... Ideally it would be nice to be able to host and edit such a map 
right from within Meta (or wherever the map was placed on our projects) whilst 
logged in. But I can only guess that to do that would be extremely difficult to 
achieve. Embedding the map on our projects with an extension but hosted and 
edited elsewhere would be more feasible I guess, but also means we have to go 
to a non-wikimedia site to be able to edit it. This is not a big deal or 
anything but it would be nicer to have it "in-house".
[I'm quite willing to admit up front that I don't know the tech at all, so 
might be on a completely irrelevant track, in which case feel free to ignore me 
:-) In any case, it's still a good idea IMO.]
