Steve,

We are definitely going to add this type of feature to the app, but this is actually one of the most difficult things to engineer. So, it's being scheduled for after guide to waypoint and POI data.

The big engineering problem is that the tracks can be of any size over time, and the phone has limited resources. So, you have to have good strategies and algorithms for managing the track data.

If you are interested, one thing we use to remove excess data is a line simplification algorithm: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramer%E2%80%93Douglas%E2%80%93Peucker_algorithm

You also need to have a mechanism to have a simplified track-line for the breadcrumbs for each map zoom level, otherwise the line takes a long time to render.
