 * Firstly thank you for this plug-in. I appreciate that on a desktop / laptop I
   can type in the address but it would be truly amazing if I didn’t have to do 
   this. There should be a marker icon that I click which then uses the HTML5 Geolocation
   API to get my location. Then if I want to override this (in case it is not very
   accurate) I should have the option of manually entering my address.
 * Are you guys planning on bringing out something like this in the near future?

 * That’s a a great use case/feature suggestion. Geocoding an address is not as 
   good as the api just knowing where you are.
