I would agree with this.

Also do we need to have an entire bar across the bottom of the screen dedicated to the location sensor? I like having it be displayed but couldn't it be put up in the menu area that isn't being used for anything?

It's nice that the pushpins have been put into the main toolbar and that the zoom in/out was condensed by removing the pan/zoom buttons. This allows you to have the zoom toolbar next to the man toolbar which frees up space for the map viewer. That's nice but then we lose space because the location sensor takes up the whole bottom of the screen.
