Hi list,

I just added a geolocation column type to trunk as part of
Jifty::Plugin::GoogleMap. To use it, simply enable the plugin and add
the following line to your model:

column location => is GeoLocation,
  render_as 'Jifty::Plugin::GoogleMap::Widget';

Then you should see the location being displayed as a googlemap, also
allowing you to edit the data by placing new marker on the map, or by
searching addresses.

There are a bunch of css styles needs to be cleaned up as some are still
hardcoded.  *hint*  Patches welcome!

Cheers,
CLK
