It's OK, this part is integrated in my Google Summer of Code project . If
you want and want to speak more about this subject, you can follow my blog
here: www.digikam.org/drupal/blog/150 .

Thank you for the idea. Me and Michael Hansen have thought on some ideas
(one of them was the one proposed by you), but we haven't decided yet on how
the "Search by location tool" will be improved.

Best Regards,
