Suggestion: display warning when no points are detected when loading a .GPX file

I recently tried to open in the app a .GPX file which I had downloaded from a hiking routes site. When opening the file, the map moves to "Null Island" and does not display a warning/error message explaining what went wrong.
After creating a .GPX file within the app and comparing it with the file I'd downloaded, I noticed the markup was slightly different:
<rte>
<rtept lat="x" lon="y">
<ele>100</ele>
</rtept>
...Compare the app-generated markup:
<trk>
<trkseg>
<trkpt lat="x" lon="y">
<ele>100</ele>
</trkpt>
...It would have been useful if the app displayed a warning such as "No track segments detected"; better yet, parsing the rtept elements and creating a new .GPX file on the fly would have been ideal.
After manually editing the file the app worked perfectly, so thank you for all the hard work so far. 👍
