I really love maps. I love how they look and how they were implemented. The only thing that i dislike is that its not possible to make notes on them or anything similar. It'd be great if you could use some sort of block to make an indicator on the map, be it redstone on the surface, torches, or some new block or device altogether, that would serve no purpose but to show up a bit more brightly on the map. It'd be great for marking bases, points of interest, etc, and you could even make treasure maps that lead to a buried marker light with a treasure there, although linking the markers to specific maps would probably prove difficult and unneccesary.
Right clicking with a map, makes a marker, and asks you for text input
This sounds like it might work. Either way, I agree. There should be a way to make SOME kind of mark on the maps. It's easy to forget things when you can't write them down or mark them.
