There was also suggestion to allow use of maps like openstreetmap.org or
google maps for displaying/editing the data.

I feel a simple graphical editor for manipulating spatial data will be more appropriate. Not all data may correspond to real world geography. Additionally, the data can be linked to OSM if user wishes to manipulate it that way. Is there any license issue with using google maps?
