Currently I use Geeqie (as well as the past gqview) as a light weight image 
viewer.  I tend to dislike bloated software, having features not used by 
myself.

Although I do not own a camera currently which automatically embeds GPS 
coordinates, I can readily see myself using such a feature had I owned such a 
camera.  (Nor am I well inclined to manually enter coordinates within the EXIF 
information manually for each image!)

On the flip side, to ensure this feature does not encourage misconceptions, had 
I had a camera embedding coordinates, I would likely readily utilize the 
feature.

So all for having this feature, but likely having a configure time option, and 
future will likely be default as more cameras have GPS by default.

I do have a rather large image collection from the past ten years, containing 
images throughout the US and overseas, but unfortunately no GPS coordinates, 
for which you can imaging is not a good thing!  Owners having the money 
currently would also desire such features.

Hope you find the feedback useful!
