Feature Request

Feedback from a user:

just a bit of feedback about the still fabulous Map Packer tool. I set up a map for some partners, and now want to get it in the other format (SMP) rather than MBTiles which is what I did before. But I have to go back and start afresh. Something that might be useful would be to be able to store or retrieve the info from maps already created, so that people could work from that basis to make new ones, rather than start from scratch. Totally not a priority, but thought I’d send on the use-case.

One way to accomplish this would be to add a "Generate New Map From This Map Request" button to each MapDashboard map request, which would pass on the config options (such as zoom level, coordinates, map style, etc.) as query parameters to GenerateMap. For that component, query params, if detected, would prefill the relevant fields, instantly draw the bounding box on the screen, and fly to the right area.

Mapbox access token would need to be provided again, however (for Mapbox maps).
