Wifi triangulation on its own would be pretty cool (another location  
method for geoclue), and if we could use that, or other non-GPS  
location data, to provide a better set of Ephemeris data for the GPS  
(rather than just supplying the Almanac data, which is what I guess  
A-GPS LTO does) to improve lock times that would be an added bonus.
