Unfortunately none published, I checked the comments of that article too, we have to believe this story without a picture :-(

Testing? The feature is already live for more than 5 months. You can find it when you search for a place (e.g.: Paris) or in "My Maps".

Exactly. And you can examine the .xml file too

This has not been covered in news etc. I think..

I.e. the geo-tagging experiment, not that .xml file I linked :)
Is this geo-tagging case a new finding?
