What are you guys using for a location picker or Google-Auto fill equivalent for map uploads? Surely we’re not currently making users type an entire address string. Surely?

I [posted this in feature requests](https://community.glideapps.com/t/location-picker-component/55620), but the feature request side of the forum seems to be deserted.

Ugh. Thanks @Uzo and @ThinhDinh. Complicated. 🤯

I may just link the user to gMaps and let them copy back their address.

Thanks for logging this here in case I get the energy.
