[google-maps] Polygon Drawing and Getting Coordinates with Google Map API v3

Well, unfortunately it seems that one cannot place custom markers and draw (and obtain coordinates) directly from maps.google.com if one is anonymous/not logged in (as it was possible some years ago, if I recall correctly). Still, thanks to the answers here, I managed to make a combination of examples that has both the Google Places search, and allows drawing via the drawing library, and dumps coordinates upon making a selection of any type of shape (including coordinates for polygon) that can be copypasted; the code is here:

This is how it looks like:

(The Places markers are handled separately, and can be deleted via the DEL "button" by the search input form element; "curpos" shows the current center [position] and zoom level of the map viewport).
