4. Mark on a map areas that have been prospected: You need a complete local map, and it must be in your inventory when you prospect, the area gets greyed out to say you have prospected, but no minerals are marked so as to not over power the feature. You can remove the greying to use the map as normal. I don't know how hard this would be to implement and what peoples reactions might be.
I'm all for making cartography useful again. (3: +1)
Compass, I like the idea of a compass that doesn't point north, just to what you most want. "Its not north you're trying to find!"

Mini map availability could be linked/limited to available cartography mapped areas by the character.
(... easy to bypass based on EnderWiggin info. (msg Below))

Alternative name, instead of compass, could be something related to ... Don't know and can't find the English word for it ... (Pendelen:NL). Holding rock on a rope above a map thing. Witches seem to be good at it.

Seems cool, but impossible. Clients get surrounding maps not only as minimap pics. They get also current terrain state. So it is possible to save world maps without minimap pics. They would be not so pretty and will lack trees/ridges (well, unless you go close enough to see them).
