Please read the notes!

These map issues, some of which have been found in topics discussing multiple issues, will be collected here instead of being incorporated into the STL until such time as the map is finalized (assuming we can tell when that has happened). Only the earliest instance of an issue will be shown; it will not be re-listed if brought up in a later topic UNLESS it is mentioned in the OP of that topic AND the previous instance(s) only appeared in replies. (This is done to facilitate later listing in the STL [if necessary], which requires a link to the topic and only the OP can have such a link; replies can't be linked to.)
