That is way interesting.

I do wonder about how long Google and its proviiders will allow this
undocumented functionality to exist, and what the throttle settings
are on the servers.

Also, what the Google developers giveth, the Google lawyers taketh
away.  At some point the user runs into the overriding requirement of
the Google Maps Terms and Condidtions:

"Also, you may not use Google Maps in a manner which gives you or any
other person access to mass downloads or bulk feeds of numerical
latitude and longitude coordinates."

I suppose that might turn on the definition of "mass downloads or bulk
feeds."

IANAL.
