I use it only because i found it first. But now that I think it better, I will 
use the annotation dialog in the future.

Well, I'm not sure there is a conflict there. I mean, if we have Locations as 
a category, then Africa would be just a subcategory of Locations and Africa 
itself would have subcategories of its own. So, we can see Locations as the 
supercategory for all geographical information in KPA database.

By the way, somewhen in the future there would be nice to have the possibility 
of saving geographical info on KPA database using GPS coordinates. This might 
either extend or replace the use of Locations.
