If that's something you can do as part of map_features.xml , then feel
free to experiment. If it needs extra stuff coding to support it then
tell us what you're looking for (and I'll have no idea how to code it
and ask Richard instead!).

I also think there's something that can be improved around the
(dropdown / icon / ? / Road Name) panel on the top left, it doesn't
seem to hang together properly. I've yet to learn how to style the UI
components though so they are still all grey-beveled default stuff. If
anyone has any ideas I'd love to hear about them, or see sketches or
similar.

Cheers,
