It would be great to have POI layer which can show user selected group of pois.

It can basically work like this:
1) User selects type of pois (pubs, no gas stations)
2) OpenLayers sends request to server with bounding box and selected pois
3) Server returns only selected pois

I don't think XAPI should be used for this. It's too complicated for
this type of task. Simple server with one table will be much faster.
The table structure can be as easy as this:
lat,lon,poi type, maybe poi name.
