I was trying to find a polite way of saying this and failing.
To put it another way,  if Martijn or anyone knows of a bullet-proof
kiosk-mode for QGIS, do tell.

Could static HTML, mostly standard JavaScript libs, and geo-ref'd map
images (exported from QGIS) for each town park (or tiles for whole town at
scales 12-16?) provide the needed offline capability?
  Does the ability to convert L-L to X,Y offline in JS (using
tile/geoTIFF/... meta data) already exist in one of our slippery libs?
