Description
It would be good to be able to add marker text background. Sometimes it is hard to differentiate the text from the map. I tried different text colors but its not enough.

Research direction
The issue does not name a file or test. Start by locating the marker-label rendering entry point in the TkinterMapView code and determine how marker text is drawn over map tiles. Done means marker names can display with a configurable background that improves readability without obscuring the map.
