Obviously, it will end up in CSSU-Testing soon and then CSSU-Stable eventually.
If you need it and wish to install it manually you can do. Obviously it's not been tested thoroughly yet.

This is what I believe, yes.

Now that it's open code, yes it 'could' be modified.
I am just glad it's fixed at the moment. I don't use the nokia maps location widget but I like the ovi geocoder information that's outputed.

what part is done by nokiamaps-navigation-provider ?
It rather calls liblocation(?) to get long/lat and then calls nokiamaps-navigation-provider (afaik there is a lib that wraps DBUS interface to it) to get the address.

Definitely. See https://gitorious.org/community-ssu/...rovider.c#L158 for example of what could be done. Though the part that formats the needed URLs and parses the responses will have to be changed as well.
