Google Maps only provides GPX upload and display to a server with a
registered API key, so a client cannot get a track overlay directly. No
obvious simple and robust way to get it via Google, then.
And you do not want to have a facility that only works with one of the
map options. Fair enough. Disappointing, but it is a good point.
One is left to wonder why Google serves client GPX facilities in Google
Earth, but not in Google Maps.

I will applaud it if and when you do find a workable solution.

Rgds, Jon
