You can use the Download submenu to batch-download tiles.

There is a slight disadvantage that some tileservers might ban you if you donwnload too many tiles. Other than that, it is all just png/jpg/gif(really, even gif!) images. So it all depends on what layers you need.

Sure why not - but I think people it might be good to make this optional with a switch in Options, as most people probably expect the current behavior shared by most other Fremantle applications (switching between fullsceen and system-bar-is visible states).

BTW, I remember modRana QML being more crash prone when running with the system bar shown, so this might indeed by a nice way to have status info, minimize and quit & less chance of crashing. Might have been fixed by a CSSU update in the meantime though.
