Another topic that came up during the mapping party is our saw-toothed
coastlines. I once did manual editing of the coastlines, such an
onerous task! Anyway, I do think we should improve our coastlines a
bit more, but just thinking of the 7,107 island seems overwhelming. I
propose we take this piece by piece and monitor progress of work.
I created a subpage for coastline correction taken from the Data
Import page. Please add more info.

The first proposed priority is to focus coastline mapping to the 10
largest islands and then move on to the next.

Furthermore, I also believe ianhaylock's PGS coastline proposal should
be revived and discussed again.
