I'm almost done implementing Talyns suggestions. After that while I look at Zonx has cooked up I'll make up a button template for showing/hiding POIs. It'll work as follows:

On the map there will be a small square button in the upper left (like the toggles for the zone connection overlay maps).

When you press this button it will expand a little square window that will list all of the POI types: NPC, NAME, ZONE, QST, LOC, etc.

You press one of those buttons and it will toggle the visiblility of all of that type of POI.

---

The auto-generated side of the code will be like so:

The website goes through the POIs for that zone.
It checks the type of the POI then adds it to the OnActivate event for that button.

I'll have a very specific example with code and such ready later today.

This is why each POI needed a unique name; without one (or if it's the same as another POI on the same page), we can't sort them.
