- Image maps are likely to be shared over many articles, either with the
same image or over a group of related images (ie, 58 maps of California, each with a different county highlighted; 100-odd periodic tables, each with a different element highlighted). Thus, it _might_ be useful to have the maps in a magic namespace, which could be linked from the image description page -- thus, one image map can be cleanly shared over many almost-identical images, in any articles that link the images.
This would be most cool. Should you or I make the feature request?
