I wouldn't mind the choice or even combination of such searches (combination would give dupes), Google is pretty good at finding places even if nobody entered them on a map - it scrapes the location from the webpages.

I would not recommand to use google API. Instead there are several other API using openstreetmap. For instance it is possible to use Open Mapquest:

Especially XAPI: http://open.mapquestapi.com/xapi/
It should also make implementing the current local search features easier - searches like "food" could be implemented like get nodes corresponding to any of a set of food-related amenities.
Stuff like this seems like it would be rather difficult to do with XAPI alone.

Of course, patches adding more providers are definitely welcome.

Modrana v0.45.4 latest: night theme corrupts map display. Others do not.

But, having looked at this again, I now see that it is an issue with the overlay maps alone, irrespective of source, rather than using the overlay with a base-map OR with aerial photo.
I only get the corruption with the night theme. Same overlay map and any other theme, switched within a session and all is well.
About aerial photos and the night theme: I do not think that inverting the colours makes sense in this instance. Obscures more than clarifies.

About mapnik: I decided that using thumb and non-free will be the best approach - why should we use non-thumb when we can use thumb. Unfortunately no one seems to bother to fix an awful extras-devel import bug: http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=112
So when modrana starts to use some mapnik code, let me know and I'll rethink what can be done at that point.

modRana v0.46.1 has been released !
The two biggest highlights of this release are:
Known issues
That theme related map corruption bug has not yet been fixed.
Changelog:
The two biggest highlights of this release are:
- local search works again!
Thanks to Geoff Kuenning, local search works yet again and now uses the the Places API provided by Google. Thanks a lot Geoff!
BTW, I still plan to eventually add support for local search based on OpenStreetMap data (most probably using the Overpass API), but like this we have something that works until then. - improved tile handling
Map drawing and tile download (both automatic and batch) have been improved and should be now faster and more efficient.

Changelog:
Code:
* Wed Apr 16 2014 Martin Kolman - 0.46.1 - local search works again thanks to a patch provided by Geoff Kuenning - thanks a lot ! :) - it is now possible to set local search radius in the GTK GUI (in options and directly in the search menu with a toggle button) - map display and dragging should now be faster - automatic map tile downloading has been rewritten and should be now more efficient - batch tile download has been rewritten and improved - should be now more efficient and faster - the tile handling code is now in much better shape overall - the batch tile menu in GTK GUI no longer lags and has a more logical structure - fix tile downloading not working in Sailfish GUI due to Python 3.4 breaking old bundled version of Urllib 3

It seems that I cant download basic Google maps anymore (normal way, not batch download). Other Google maps and for example OSM works, but not basic Google maps. Already downloaded tiles show normally. Terminal give following errors
The urls return google errorpage about malformed request.
Edit: It may be that Modrana is requesting the tile in wrong order (X,Y,Z) and it should be (Z,X,Y). At least when I change the order in url, I get a map tile with my browser.
