I already saw this isn't perfect.  First of all since the sectors are 
just drawn on top of the map they of course don't show the actual view 
area including occlusions.  In addition the area is wrong as well since 
i would have to use a different map projection (in the current one the 
view cone would need to be curved).  This is especially a problem with 
the higher altitude views.

You sure this worked?  I have no comment from you in the database yet. 
But testing myself it worked.  I changed the confirmation page now - You 
should get a page saying "Your message has been added and is waiting for 
approval." and a preview of your comment after submission.

Well - until now the traffic has been moderate and the size is just 
about 50MB currently.
