*Anything* you add will make the API bigger, (by definition), and some
people who live in the 'boonies', (thanks to Bratliff for teaching me
that word),  without DSL, are already complaining about the size it
has now.
In fact, I think there is already a lot of unnecessary stuff, like
GGeoXML, as the same functionalitiy can be accomplished with some
extra coding.
Personally, I think that a bare-bones API would be most efficient, and
it would also prevent people from falling into the illusion that it's
all a matter of a few clicks and you have a full fledged GIS
application.

I have no need for it, and none of myclients ever requested something
like that.

I didn't say 'clumsy' I said 'clumsiER', as explained abouve.

I didn't say you were lazy. :-)
