No, those are separate (in MapBuilder they are widgets in the config). There is nothing in either the WMC or the current OWSContext specs that does that kind of thing as far as I'm aware. Neither for e.g. overview maps overlaid on top of the main map. > And even further, does it have anything to say about placement of > those on a map?

Not currently.
