Default Combine Multiple Streets & Trips Itineraries Into a Single File

Dreaming...

Let's say you are planning a multiple-day itinerary but you want to do it a single day at a time. However, once complete you want to consolidate it all into a single file.

One way to do it might be to have what Adobe's PhotoShop does with virtual 'layers.' You could have multiple layers 'stacked' over one another so that you could focus only on a single layer at a time or merge them all together when completed. Or like MSFT's Excel with multiple worksheets that can be linked one to the other. The Starts and Ends might linked from layer to layer. Statistics for each segment (or layer) would be nice. This would be nice for calculating costs in a commercial environment (trucking?) or driving times and average speeds.

P. S. The user would be able to compose alternative itineraries and easily compare them if they were viewable as layers in a single file. Imagine being able to visualize two or three alternative routes at one time by stacking semi-transparent layers.

Street Atlas allows this. I would like to see this feature also.
