--- Comment #5 from Tobias Leupold <[email protected]> ---
I can't tweak the search results, I just use what Marble outputs. It's the very
same you get when you search for something using Marble.

One could get other results by using other data sources. Maybe, those can also
be installed as a Marble plugin. E.g. when you query OpenStreetMap's Nominatim
for "Morenhoven, Germany", you would get a result with "Morenhoven, Swisttal,
Rhein-Sieg-Kreis, Nordrhein-Westfalen, Deutschland" as the description.

However, using Marble's search functions was easy to add (and it's better than
nothing, isn't it?!), whereas using e.g. Nominatim would be more work to
implement (well, it would be essentially the same as the altitude lookup).
Maybe something for later?

Concerning your other suggestions:

1. You can already copy the current map center coordinates formatted properly
for e.g. use in Google Maps. Just open the context menu on the map and choose
"Current map center" and then "Copy as 'latitude, longitiude'". You'll get the
string you can append e.g. to your preferred Google Maps URL.

2. The OSM view is the only one suitable for geotagging. All others are way too
coarse to find or check a location, we need a few meters in resolution. So I
don't think it would be meaningful to add an option to switch to a map view
that can't actually be used for the only thing KGeoTag was written for.

For both suggestions, I think neither being able to open coordinates in an
external program/website etc. nor switiching to e.g. Marbles's sattelite view
will help when geotagging photos, will it?
