Offline map switching
When choosing a different offline map its not apparent onscreen that this has been done.
ie I'm going on a cruuse soon, and passing different countries, so I've downloaded some other country maps.
The onscreen map/country/state doesn't update to the new global position relating to offline maps. It can be confusing if your still looking at the wrong map onscreen, as the map tiles do not update, yet caches still do.
It would be intuitive that the map moves to the new offline map area/country/state.

not sure I fully understand your request
When I choose a different map could GCDroid center on the Country, or centre on the last cache viewed in that country.?
This would be handy for countries that are close together, mostly. But I still got confused when "Australia" map went blank and wouldn't load..... I had New Caledonia offline map selected.
This is not that easy and not always expected. When I cross a state border and select another map I do NOT want the map to zoom. I am where I want to be on the map, I simply ran out of the map and switch it. Never a fan of all these automatic things. Too many would complain about it.
Also, GCDroid now shows what map is selected with a little icon next to it.
