Enhancement: GPX file load for waypoints

This is a suggestion for a possible new feature for GC.com.

 

I'm just getting a new night cache published and have created reference point waypoints for all the night markers. Unfortunately (and perhaps unsurprisingly) I miskeyed the coordinates for two of them and unfortunately it thus failed the review.

 

It would be useful to be able to load a GPX file from GPSr or GSAK for example during the cache publishing process to create the initial set of waypoints. These would then be edited to give them the correct waypoint types (they could start with a status of "Reference Point") and appropriate annotations.

 

This would both eliminate human error as in this case and by making it so much easier to do, encourage cachers to provide more complete information for a cache listing.

 

Thanks, Roderick
