Could we short-circuit the GML? If I have the time (there's freemap stuff I
need to do for the SoC conference; however it's more likely I can do somethig
with it after that) I can have a go at doing something which goes straight
from planet to shapefiles. However I would need to research shapefiles first
so it wouldn't be a one-day job.
