What would be really, really nice would be to have a new metadata field called "Summary", which would be used for one-line summaries of the content of nodes. This could then be included in the output of "nearby" listings and make them much more useful.
E.g.:
- _The Dog and Handgun, WC4X 1AA_ (144 metres away) "Crap pub full of angry drunkards, avoid"
- _International Museum of Fish_ (270 metres away) "Fascinating attraction for all fish lovers"
- _Marmalade City_ (312 metres away) "Department store for all things marmalade-related"
I think that this is a good idea. Also, this information could be made available to the RDF/XML feed as dc:description, whereas the actual "content" is not (which contains wiki markup and HTML tags).
