Add support for rendering GPX-files, which can contain:

  • Waypoints -- a waypoint, point of interest, or named feature on a map
  • Routes -- an ordered list of waypoints representing a series of turn points leading to a destination
  • Tracks -- an ordered list of points describing a path

About 1,5 years ago, I've started developing PyGPX, a Python package that "brings support for reading, writing and converting GPX files". While PyGPX is in need of a thorough polish, I feel like this would be the ideal way forward for adding GPX support to PaperMap, possibly via an optional dependency.
