Redesign "new location" screen
Created by: Cassidy James Blaede
This would be a pretty substantial redesign for this screen, but I think it would help focus on the information that matters in a more visually pleasing way.

I have the screen and the search engine with geocode-glib . Take a look at:
Working now on maps inside popovers ...

Actually, i'm working in Geoclue & OWM integration, you know. With it , we can modify this screen. Thanks for your comments and suggestions.

To describe the ASCII sketch in prose,
- Put the location search entry in the headerbar
- Show a small/medium-sized map preview next to each location, zoomed to a level that makes it relatively easy to confirm the location visually
- Clicking the map shows the popover with a much larger map
- Add a Select button in each row to make choosing a city a single-click operation
- Add the state/region to the location name (if possible, like Colorado, Victoria, etc. in the mockup)
- Format the location name more naturally (City, Region Country)
- Remove the column headers since the data should be self-evident
- Remove the OpenWM ID (I don't see how this is useful to a human)

Then clicking on the map preview could show the popover described in #15 (closed)
