Yes, I want a way to setup a mock position, both for testing purposes and to give more control to users. regarding debugging: A good debugging tool for geolocation would include the possibility to update the location at will, not just to set the location once. One can imagine a map being opened in a portion of the screen with a draggable marker on it, and the position handler being called every time the marker is moved on the map. Would that be trivial to develop as a Firefox addon? How much work would be required to port it to chrome? setCurrentLocation would make it easy to develop such thing as a cross browser bookmarklet, using google maps API, in less than 20locs Regarding user control: Users only have the possibility to refuse to share their location info. They should be given a low level way to provide a custom position to a website. lr
