Map marker improvements

Withdrawn by proposer (too many proposals)

  • Problem: There should be a way to use "marker clusters" - when zoomed out, closely adjacent markers are placed into groups; clicking the group zooms in and expands the group into individual markers. Additionally, the current marker design can be clumsy - allowing multiple styles would enable editors to pick the appropriate style for the task at hand.
  • Who would benefit:
  • Proposed solution: Finish deploying marker clusters and provide a way for editors to disable it when it might be inappropriate. Provide a way for the community to add/use different styles of markers.
  • More comments:
  • Phabricator tickets:
    • Should we use the marker cluster plugin with `<mapframe>` and `<maplink>` ? (T136455)
    • Customize map markers in Kartographer (T131618)
