<p>My personal opinion: definitely launch as-is. I like <a href="https://github.com/jfirebaugh" class="user-mention">@jfirebaugh</a>'s approach workflow-wise but not UI-wise: discoverability issue, as mentioned; plus adding the "get directions" block to every search result would reduce the number of results that fit on a page quite dramatically. So - I don't think that either of the visual designs hits perfection, but I don't think we're going to hit perfection by waiting here...</p>
<p>If I'm forced to say which of your three options to plump for then it's the first, "prefer current UI".</p>
<p>An early launch of the feature will draw lots of comments (of course) which will be food for thought for a future rethink of the interaction design of it. So IMHO there's very little cost-without-benefit to going ahead.</p>
