Description

It can be hard to see a task on the map, especially depending on which base map you're using. It would be nice to be able to change this challenge-wide (eg, set the stroke color, width, etc).

Here's an example of how hard it can be to see the overlay when using OpenCycleMap:

Research direction

No source file, test, or entry point is named. Start by locating the task overlay styling in the map interface and reviewing the OpenCycleMap screenshot; done means challenge-wide controls can set overlay properties such as stroke color and width and the result is verifiable on different base maps.
