Question:  Would it make sense to:

1) Disable raster automaps toggle by default
2) Disable automaps toggle by default
3) Add a new toggle for disabling URL's from automap, off by default
4) During indexing, set the automaps column to "no" by default
5) Same as #4, but set it to "no" only for URL's
6) Same as #4, but set it to "no" for URL's and rasters

What do people want here?  This is simple enough to solve, as long
as we know what we want.

I'm leaning towards 1, 2, 3, and 6.  That would give people an
automaps setup for vector maps right out of the gate.  They'd just
have to turn on the global automaps toggle to enable it.
