my mind too. I'm sure the applications I have in mind are just a part  
of what can be done.
The old one born with the idea to offer a simple navigation tool,  
this is more an application framework.
Ex: I've tried do duplicate the viewport in a new window as in modern  
GIS system but without success (for the moment).

I've left many little thing aside and this is one that can be changed.

right. It's like that. Sorry, I've forgot to upload a file yesterday.  
This Identify function is provisory. We are working on it, don't know  
when but hope to post it very soon.
