Google AJAX API does UK Geocoding of Address but the Map API does NOT due to contractual reasons (err Ordnance Survey and Royal Mail Crown Copyright of postcode and address poinst 'PAF')
so in 'theory' you could parse the ajax api geocoder and return a marker on the map api (though in the 'terms and conditions' might be infringed)
So in 'theory' you can send the request geocode to windows live local and created a permalink (which contains the long/lat) parse though a bit of code and create a marker on a google map (or other map).

"It's also helpful to display the failure reason to your users, where possible, otherwise your users might waste their time doing things like trying to guess the correct spelling of "Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow, UK", when the problem isn't the spelling but the fact that the API doesn't support UK geocoding for legal or contractual reasons."
