Master list of maplink-related problems and suggestions:
General
- Zoom of half-integers should be integrated
- Custom jpg icons should be allowed as pushpin maps allow them
- Visible labels should be available on maplink maps, like pushpin maps have
- Maplink maps should be "interactive", not "static" on article space even if just to allow hovering/clicking on icons to display text instantly
- Maplink maps need more view options, perhaps a click for city-level vs. state-level vs. country-level like pushpin maps have, or...
- Maplink maps need better support for side-by-side maps - I can use {{stack}} but it doesn't work on mobile
- Maplink maps need better availability on infoboxes - see Wikipedia:Mapframe maps in infoboxes
- "Shape-inverse" doesn't display cutouts like enclaves
- Icons should be able to be directly shown, rather than inside the map pin icon
Icons

Unclear
- library - would look better if it incorporated a building and/or a book/books, see these
- fire station - resembles an active fire
- bank - should be a dollar bill or bank building
