Proposal: map picker for Livebook

I was playing around with a location-based weather service, and noticed that a map picker (for location input) is not trivial to set up, yet. Examples of kino_maplibre are focused on using the map as an output to display data, but I’d like to use it as a smart cell input in livebooks (or eventually in a Phoenix app).

I’m new to Livebook and so I wanted to check my idea here first: does it make sense to add this functionality to the Kino plugin for MapLibre? My thinking so far is that I would modify info_on_click to store the clicked coordinates in a local variable, if that sounds right.
