Bart, The "straight line" navigation service will work just fine for my purposes. In fact, it's better than using the map places workaround that I was going to go with. (That works OK in that the map places points to that place, but it points relative to the compass, even when in "North is up mode", so one needs to be in compass or direction of travel mode for it to make sense. Thank you for taking the time to respond.
