    There's an unfortunate trap hidden in Marble's plugin implementation: A Plugin is both a factory of a certain interface and an implementation of that interface. Therefore a RenderPlugin is a factory for a LayerInterface (you can use it to create something that draws on the map) and an implementation of LayerInterface (you can use it directly to draw on the map).
    
    The desired usage is that PluginManager holds the factory part of the plugins, and anything that wants to use an instance of the corresponding interface retrieves the factory (the plugin) from PluginManager and calls its factory method `newInstance()`.
    
    The trap then is that all the plugins that PluginManager holds look and behave like implementing some interface, but in reality the instances that are actually used lie elsewhere. We will fix that at some point in the future (e.g. `AbstractFloatItem` will not inherit `RenderPlugin`, but `RenderPluginInterface`), but for now have to take care manually.
    
    Long story short: Please iterate over `map()->renderPlugins()` here, not `model()->pluginManager()->renderPlugins()`. Same for `setShowPositionMarker` below.
