Definitely makes sense. Will be part of the next updated version.

I'll look into this. Basically I borrowed the class layout from the BBC Weather Ion, so I did not put too much thought into this.

Agreed. I can reproduce this umlaut issue, but am almost certain that searching for city names containing umlauts (and other special characters) used to work correctly in the past. The URLs being generated are correctly URL-encoded for UTF-8. I'll get in touch with the service operator to figure out whether this is a server-side bug.

> The Ion makes use of wetter.com's officially-supported REST API. The API supports forecasts for up to three days, so the Ion does not supply any information about the current weather conditions. The forecast for the current day is split between night and day whereas the following two days are provided as an aggregated value for the whole day, respectively.

Profiled it for memory leaks using Valgrind, which did not bring up any leaks in the control of the Ion. Those two still look somewhat suspicious, so I'd like to get your opinion about them:
