[Xastir] Feature idea for Xastir

[N1OFZ]

FWIW, I used roadnav last year for a trip from CT to PA and it worked  
great.  The directions were slightly different from Google (Google  
used a parallel highway that would have saved about 15-20 minutes).   
Overall I found it to be a pretty good application.
