Description

Inspired by this thread on the community forum.

We need to improve the display of the OSM feature linked to the task, if available, especially if the mapper is in Rapid mode. At the very least we can make sure that we're zoomed in so that the selected element is not buried in a crowded map view.

Research direction

Trace how the linked OSM feature is displayed and how the map behaves when a mapper is in Rapid mode. Start with the map and task-selection entry points, then define the work as making the selected element visible and appropriately zoomed rather than buried in the surrounding map.
