[Xastir] feature request

[Gerry Creager N5JXS]

The asocial side of me is thinking we need to recognize MGRS in Xastir. 
  And, perhaps UI-view, although Roger's not responded to my last 
missive on compressed objects...

<HUMOR>
I'd like to suggest (currently in jest; this MAY change) that digi ID's 
go to MGRS 1km grids (9 char: 18SUU8401 as an example) and the default 
for objects and positions is 1m grids (18SUU836014 as an example...). 
In my benevolent plan, we'd allow position degradation by using fewer 
characters of grid precision.

Complaints could be dealt with by placing a mortar round in the grid 
square last reported by the complaintant.  I've not figured out how to 
handle collateral damage caused when someone reports 1m accuracy with 
25m error...
</HUMOR>

73, all,
Gerry
