[OSM-dev] Small improvements for Potlatch

I have been thinking about Potlatch and wanted to suggest two improvements:

* Show segments by default. This would solve two bugs:
** Segments load very slowly from the server
** Sometimes when you pan along, you hit an area that has not
downloaded from the server, but appears to be segment/way-less,
prompting you to start tracing and ending up with duplicate ways

* Change the icon on the GPS to show whether or not they are toggled.

Potlatch is a great tool for new mappers to get involved with OSM and
I think it is one of the most important parts of OSM, from a social
perspective.

For those who do not know me, my irc nick is Burgundavia. I am heavily
involved in the Ubuntu project. I map the Victoria, BC, Canada region,
which can be seen at:

Corey
