Map Viewer for Redline stuff

	3D preview of road types.
	Preview mode/polygon rendering of road.
	Selection and inspection in road types window.
	Quick reload command, for using side by side with Track Editor. Possibly automatic reload when files change?
	Generation of map overview + magic numbers for mapinfo files.
	Moving and editing attributes in road types window.
	Adding/removing road types vertices.
	“Same as” function for start/end of road type (e.g., make the start of this road type like the end of that road type).
	Much interior rejiggling to support track editing.
	Script menu (for full-track-effect shell scripts without interaction).
	Show racing line.
	Show geometry of entities.
	Height Profile window – show segments as a height-versus-distance graph, editable.
	Basic 3D editing: select and drag points, add and remove points.
	New camera control model.
	Make plug-in browser columns sortable.
	Make scale of perspective and ortho views match.
	Fancier script support: shell scripts in bundle with config file, specifying full road/selection/insert-at-selection modes of operation, some sort of parameter UI support.
	Auxillary file format, to store Map Viewer-specific data/metadata.
	Extended 3D editing – Bézier curves, tools for smooth manipulation, overlap prevention.
	Report parse errors for problem files in plug-ins (e.g. High Speed Circuit alpha 2)
	Report parse errors for files that do open, but have problems (e.g. Dantona 1.0)
	Reduce precision of numerical output and avoid trailing zeroes.
	Sort keys before output.

	Browser for roadtypes, showing profiles for each, and parameters like track width and respawn location.
	Show edges of road.
	Make upper 90° corner on City map not crinkle.
	Reimplement display of AI track parameters.
	Generalise parser for horrible, horrible ad-hoc text config file format, then spork out Jonas’s brain for this perversity.
	Ability to save documents (as a mapinfo/road/roadtypes triplet).
	Ability to open roadtypes file by itself (might be easy, basing it on map document).
	[Not actually map viewer] Work out why Plug-in Splitter chokes on Viper Racing, and fix it.
	Camera control (panning, rotating around self).
	Parsing roadinfo files (width and shape of road segments).
	Option to show grid in miles. Should check Redline preferences for default value.
	Grid should show up properly in South and East views.
	Work out why RLRoadSegments are bigger on Intel Macs, then make them stop.
	Track segment interpolation.
	Fix parsing for Rally, Snow and Football Pitch.
	Add Open Built-in Maps menu item
	[bug] Fix handling of hex numbers in config parser
	Fix rendering of first segment (again).
	Implement underlays (pictures to place under maps for tracing).
	Fix twisted tracks.
