I have accumulated a small series of patches to the OSM plugin along with the other fixes I have submitted here. They have lived in a tangled mess on my master branch so far, but not anymore!

I have two main branches that need merging (on top of osm arbitrary layers):

• osm_kml_formatting - indentation of the KML, optimisation: remove duplicate style declarations, folders support (even though it's not supported by openlayers just yet)

If it's not supported yet, does it break something? Seems it must be hard to test the change at least if it's not supported. --Joey

Good point. Maybe that can be skipped for now, it sure doesn't look like it will be merged any time soon anyways. I do think that the optimisation needs to be merged, it's quite important because if halves the size of the resulting KML file. --anarcat

The merge you just did is fine, the only thing missing is folder support, I'll keep it in a separate branch for now, maybe it will be useful later! This is done. --anarcat

• osm_openlayers_misc - do not override the sorting of layers (so that the order defined in osm arbitrary layers takes effect) and tell Emacs about the non-default indentation policies of the file.

I prefer not to pollute files with editor-specific garbage, and that goes doubly for files served over the network. Cherry-picked the layer sorting change. --Joey

Alright, I am fine with that, thanks. I moved my branch to the attic. -- anarcat

Those two branches are also merged directly on my master branch... along with osm arbitrary layers.

I am filing this as one todo to simplify matter, but I can also split it further if needs be. --anarcat
