+I'm wanting a [[map]] (with indentation levels) showing page _titles_
+instead of page 'names'. As far as I can see, this is not an option with
+existing plugins - I can get a list of pages using [[inline]] and
+appropriate [[templates]], but that has no indentation and therefore
+doesn't show structure well.
+
+The quick way is to modify the map plugin to have a 'titles' option. The
+hard way is to modify inline to have an indentation option, in which case
+inline will be a superset of map functionality. The second option seems a
+little wrong from the point of view of perversely extending what 'inline'
+means, but it seems right from the point of view of combining common
+features. Maybe adding template support to map is a more useful approach
+than just adding a title option.
+
+Thoughts, anyone? --[[KarlMW]]
+
+We'd also very much like to have an option to display the title of the page instead of the filename in the map plugin. --Andrew

+There's a patch implementing this in [[!debbug 484510]]. It needs a few fixes
+before I merge it. Now applied. --[[Joey]]

+
+I noticed that when the pagespec returns no map items, the map plugin does not close off the ul and div tags. Below is a simple patch
+that seems to work on the examples I tried. I am a beginner so please help me out here. Thanks. --[[harishcm]]
