Issue Summary

GMap seems to be coming along very nicely since I last checked in, thank you.

A small feature, which I imagine it would/could be reasonably easy to implement:

When viewing a map nodes are displayed on the map corresponding to node locations. To view details for a marker it is clicked on and a bubble appears with node title and other information (I primarily display GMap through GMap Views).

What I think would be a really nice usability feature would be to also output a text list of all node titles (in the case of map/node) or items in the GMap List View, or lists of RSS feeds being fed into the map. When an map marker is hovered over the corresponding text-link (placed in a block near the map) would have a :hover action (CSS-able) and when an item in the block is clicked on it would open the map info window (perhaps also have a link in the output list next to each node title 'Go direct to this node'), sorting these lists by GMap taxonomy marker may also be extremely useful.

I understand this had not yet been implemented. All the information to do this is currently being pulled out to build the map in the first place would it be complex to build this functionality into GMap or it's successor (or as an add-on dependent module)?

I do hope I have explained this as clearly as I hoped to. Happy to bounce ideas back.
