Description
Expanding the marker-symbol integer range from 0-9 to 0-99 or 0-999 would be helpful for labeling all markers of data sets with a large number of features, such as a flight plan or a campus layout where all the buildings are numerically labeled.
Some examples:
Number of buildings managed by Harvard, 646 buildings

Buildings managed by MIT, 190 buildings

A flight plan from KLAX (Los Angeles) to EG08 (Boston) 70 waypoints

Research direction
