Ordinary compasses have been around for rather longer :-) Surely almost
everyone who navigates in mountainous areas has a decent compass? I sometimes take
bearings along streets in towns where the gps signals are poor.  A simple way
to use that information in josm would be very useful, The measurement plugin
looked possible, but it has been broken for months now: presumably it is
no longer maintained (no response to tickets).
