This seems like such a simple and basic function! I don't want to have Maemo-Mapper and my GPS receiver running all day just to track my steps, and I don't want to re-trace my steps if I've wandered all over the place like a cartoon character.

It seems I ought to be able to set a point in a map using GPS and have some way to look up and rediscover where it is, even days or weeks later. If MM doesn't have that function, it seems to me it certainly ought to. Gnuite could call it the "Hey, Dude, where did I park my car?" function.

I suspect that Maemo-Mapper does this, and I just haven't figured out how yet.

(For that matter, it seems to me that I ought to be able to look up and find any number of self-created-and-labeled points. Like if I was in Istanbul last year and I ate at a great restaurant, I ought to be able to finish the meal, step outside, mark where I am on an already-downloaded map of Istanbul by using the GPS, label it "Istanbul Restaurant," and find it next time I'm in Istanbul, if I still have all my data and can remember the label I used.)
