AIUI, the suggestion is to allow an app to show a map, and let the
user pick their appropriate location; to speed up getting a fix.

As Alberto says, ideally the framework/OS would provide some global
widget for doing this (similar to the AGPS Beta app on Maemo 4); but
if that's not the case, perhaps it makes sense for app developers to
do it.

Indeed, but this isn't the use case Alberto's described (BICBW).
