Just a heads up.
Both app stores have made it way too painful for me to deal with their rules 
about location permissions (or, frankly, any permissions).

The fact that the company that is built around tracking our every move keeps 
rejecting my app because it violates their rules is deeply ironic, but I just 
can't find the energy to keep fighting Google. And Apple isn't any better.

So the ability to pick the current GPS location and to use the location service 
in the background will be dropped from future app store versions.

Right now I'm wondering if I should just remove the code, or if I should 
compile it out and allow people who want to build their own and side-load it to 
still have that feature.

Thoughts? Is there anyone here who side-loads their own build? And if yes, are 
you using the GPS features?
Hint, using the current location when editing dives is partly broken right now, 
as is applying GPS fixes obtained by the location service... So if you are 
using these features, I'm curious how well it works.

As always, if I don't hear from you I assume you don't care and will just 
remove the code (which is my preference).
