[mkgmap-dev] Manage drive-on-left/drive-on-right in resources\LocatorConfig.xml

How can we make the behaviour deterministic where the map area covers
both? For example, you can't make a rectangular box around the UK
without including bits of France. If the splitter/mkgmap combo decides
to start in the bottom right, the whole of the UK will be driving on the
right. So I don't see when the "detect" option is realistically going to
be useful. Between the UK and France there is a big bit of water, but
there are many land borders between dor and dol countries. Can we get a
combined map that contains both?
