Great, seems to be working well for me.

I hope you can implement this also for normal POI - currently in 
Mapsource under "Feature" the "place category" is still grayed out.

Then the only in my eye really useful features of cgpsmapper Personal 
that we are missing would be:
- non squared overview map (this would be really helpfull if you have to 
"country" maps based on geofabrik data, without having one overlaying 
the other with the blank overview map)
- avoid unpaved roads

I would not include real address search yet, because housenumbers are 
not yet used widespread in OSM.

Additionaly It would be great, if the "road-name-pois" option could be 
dropped, and search for streets enabled via the index (as the Garmin 
search for address function, depends on housenumbers, maybe housenumber 
0 could be defaulted to - as I don't think housenumber 0 exists 
anywhere). This way when searching for "nearest places" the streets 
would not clutter other more important POIs (without selecting a category).
