It would be nice if the module would notify you if it returns back multiple geo coordinates.

I'm not sure what you mean?

Sorry, I really wasn't very specific was I...

What I mean is if it is geocoding the address "1600 Pennsylvania" "washington dc", and the user forgets the 'ave' or 'street'. What if it finds multiple locations for that address. Right now I think it just picks the first one and goes with it.

A notification that there are multiple options or no addresses found would be good.

Does that make more sense?

I do that recently with some JS... I just make a request on google API and propose 3 results to the user. In this case I don't use geocode in fact but directly take the long/lat to fill the geo field with the selected location. My code is sadly not adaptable to another situation.

But I like this idea.. but that would be an optional behavior and we need think on a good and simple interface. Perhaps a sub module can do that. Can you provide some sketch of how you see the UI for this feature?

Perhaps we can simply search and auto complete the field with some results in an JS drop down... What do you think? So this feature don't require an other submit button. This also feet easily with a lot of design.
