sorry, I considered as if this was always already the case.

Gulf of Venice and Gulf of Trieste are both already relations.

I assumed this would be the case elsewhere too. it was my understanding 
that my suggestion would use the already present complexity, not add to 
it.  please prove me wrong in a couple of relevant cases.  then we can 
look at them.

not sure I understand this one.  can you exemplify?

ah, you mean, I would see a label in a language I can't read, and I 
might not even recognize it as belonging to the same feature. but, I 
mean, we're speaking of the showcase, not of a properly localized map, 
so who cares?

on the other hand, designing and programming such a complication just 
for a showcase isn't maybe worth the effort.  so: I don't know.
