There is a fairly easy way to convert KML to GeoJSON, which you can already use. Maybe at some point we will have some way for editors to paste KML inside Visual Editor and it would auto convert it for you, but we don't have that yet. I feel it is bad to introduce multiple data formats directly into <maplink>/<mapframe>, as that will become very hard to maintain and support, both on the data side and on the code side.
