+1 Would it be possible to get a different set of icons that don't have the licensing issue? If we want to get more people using the editor it will need to be included in the package, or very easy to install. It might be worth looking at the CycleStreets app which has a bundle pack separate installer for offline maps.

Here's a few things from my initial testing.

On the initial load area screen, it would be nicer to state how recent the last known location is. Maybe even the distance between that GPS location and the current network location?

Is it possible to configure other Map backgrounds beyond the ones that are currently defined?

I think the history command could be better named "More info".

When I zoom in really far the width of the ways gets too wide, thus makes it more difficult to select things in a very detailed area. Could the lines and points be thinner when zoomed in very far?
