Barry, You have a good point... And I just noticed a paragraph about Google Geocoding not allowing to use its results for anything other than displaying on a Google map, so I can't use it in this case for sure. Though I still find it quite confusing that there's nothing in the docs about not allowing to use the service from the browser - what if I used the service to display results on a static Google map for example, just because I didn't need to load the whole JS library for some minimal use?
