perhaps the #iComplain service can be combined with #Maparrehea ? ? ?

Hi there Oliver-

Thanks for your post on Style Editor. It's great to get feedback on CloudMade's products - we will surely evaluate your requests for future versions!

A few comments:

- Style Editor will continue to grow in functionality. Our aim is to make Style Editor the tool for creating vertical map applications - just like the aeronautical chart application your currently developing. The trick for us is to balance performance of the tiles with the ability to make customized changes

- The above issue being the main reason why not all objects are editable, and not available at all zoom levels. More customization makes more performance challenges. Having said that, we want to continue to add more editable objects at more zoom levels. I agree with you turning off road names and other objects to make a clean map style is a must...stay tuned.

- Filtering: we are implementing filtering now by features in our vector map api. This is primarily designed to address navigation applications. Filtering by attributes would be a next step that we will evaluate beginning of the coming year.

- Customisable labels: a feature that we are considering now.
