Can entering co-ordinates be improved?

Cutting and pasting a bunch of coordinates from my tracking spreadsheet into the new To Be Hunted system is a pretty painful experience. (This also applies to adding a new artwork etc, but that autodetecting the location from geotagged photos means I haven’t had to deal with that version enough to be quite so starkly obvious as adding a dozen To Be Hunted pieces in a row)

Rather than just being able to paste something like 57.85021087 27.00359785 straight into the search box, I need to click the three dots, select Coordinate mode, paste them in, manually convert the space/tab between them to a comma, hit “OK” on the popup that asks “Do you want to use the entered geolocation?” (and repeat this all again if I happen to change window/tab in the middle of any of this, which resets it).

Coordinates generally come in a very small number of formats: being able to intercept those in the default inpux box and just doing the right thing automatically would make this all a lot friendlier.
