Believe it or not, after managing to ignore it for almost 8 years I finally got around to trying modrana, mainly due to this recent thread: [1]

My first impression after approximately two hour of trying is: I think I like it.

However, there are two things that bother me:

1. I can't find a way to interactively change routing tracks.
I'm using the bicycle setting and I tried routing from my home to my office, and modrana shows me exactly the route I usually take. However, that route contains a path through a forest that even in good weather conditions requires some modest mountain biking skills (S2 single trail [2]). There is an altenative route that doesn't require any skills, but I don't know how to change the suggested route.
I'm using offline routing, in case that info is important. And I'd like to keep it that way.

2. English pronounciation for Geman street names is entirely useless. I wouldn't have recognized my own street name if it hadn't been written on the screen.
Is there a way to tell espeak to use German pronounciation? I have zero knowledge about espeak. Of course, I can just turn voice off in modrana, but I'd find it rather useful iff I can understand what it's saying.
