Could the name of our placemarks be what is passed to twitter? I don't want the universe knowing my location, but my friends know where my home is and if they want to find locations that I check into they can investigate/ask me.

I know in a country like Belgium we will have fewer users than in certain other countries. So I know there will be few friends around me.
It would be nice if I could widen the 'Nearby notifications' or 'around me' radius to about 20Km, as 4km is not going to give me much of activity.
It would be a nice extra.

For Belgium (and some other countries in europe as well) it would be handy if you could turn of the 'state' field in a location, as we don't use. We just have city, postcode and country. (Although we use 'province' , google seem to handle them different).
It gives very strange location titles ex.:
Koningsstraat 39, 8400 Oostende, Oostende, Belgium (Koningsstraat 39, Oostende, Vlaams Gewest 8400, BE).

Could be nice for some places, we don't have to display the street itself too, as street is not always relevant (woods, beach, ...)

It would be very handy if it were possible to put a marker on the map itself instead of having to type an address, drag and drop style.
This would be good for editing locations as well.
It happened to me a street wasn't recognised, and then this function could come in handy.

It would good to be able to edit placemarks. Currently you can either checkin or delete only.
