See friends and guildies locations on the map!

Do you think its possible to display the locations of friends and guildies on the continent map?

For instance, if your in Tyria and you have 4 friends online and 2 are in Tyria too. You open up the map, zoom out and it will show little red circles where your 2 friends are.

The same going for guildies, and alliance members. All being different colours to reprosent different types.

Obviously they have to be on the same continent to see them.

But if Anet was to ever merge maps and allow you to move between them likes pages, this would benefit from that too. A quick and easy way to find friends and allies.

It would benefit for forming parties, if you're looking for something to do, and you know a friend or guildie is in a certain outpost you need.

It would also benefit when trying to form parties and your waiting for someone. You can quickly open the map and see where they are.

The obvious issue is if someone is inside an instance....

...you cant expect it to follow them in real time. It would just a dot next to the instance name to indicate their in there. It would only change if they move into another instance or outpost.

You would options in the interface to turn them off if you wanted too. You could also have an option to stop people tracking you, incase you get stalked by an abusive player.
