Review request for marble.


Summary
-------

The position marker is a bit hard to spot on the N900 when there's only time for a quick glance at the screen. To improve that, this patch adds a half-transparent red circle at the current position. To give it a right to exist other than enhanced visibility, its size depends on the accuracy of the current position. The circle can be interpreted as "the device is pretty sure that the real position is within the colored circle". See the screenshot for an example with little confidence.
