Let us not make this a KML-problem. It is a nice format to work with, well
supported and with more features than GPX. All the work I have done with the
international borders of Norway, have been based around KML, for a number of
reasons (the two most important, being the ability to assign colors to
markers and a good client to visualize the data in).
In addition, I have had a hard time finding anything in Google Earth terms
that limits tracing, as opposed to Google Maps where this is stated very
clearly.
