If you're part of/using http://blogoscoped.com/archive/2009-03-24-n84.html then you might want to check this greasemonkey script I created this afternoon. It adds maps options through greasemonkey to the experiment. http://www.greatslovakia.com/maps/google_more_options_maps.user.js

Currently it has three different "modes" Normal view, directions and streetview.
