I have semi working prototype code for that but it has a major problem.

When editing dive info, we open a dialog. From there the user can click on a
button that opens the map window.

Switching notebook panes at that stage isn't hard - but the dialog is modal
to the main window and I have not managed to get Gtk to let us interact with
the notebook pane that has the map in it. So things like right click to mark 
the spot no longer work :-(

I can push this out in a branch if others want to see if they can make it work -
it's very much a prototype at this stage…
