I am missing options to activate one by one and change the supl.server - currently you are forced to use AGPS if you want GPS but why not have settings like

  • Location

Advancing to

  • Mobile Location
  • GPS
    • Assisted
  • Glonass

or even another hierarchy down with an "Advanced Settings" entry?

I know this is not for $user but freedom-of-choice and the possibility to deactivate Mobile Location and the a in A-GPS would suite the current data-farming issues.
