Comment:

 I can get most of this fixed but it seems that commercial layers can't be
 used in the OverviewMap widget in OpenLayers (see http://n2.nabble.com/
 Overview-Map-Question-td1822998.html#a1823001).  I have spent a few hours
 looking into the issue but I don't have a fix or even know why that is at
 this point.

 This imposes a few restrictions on the OverviewMap widget when it is used
 in Fusion, ie. it can only be used with MapGuide, MapServer and WMS layer
 types, and if a MapGroup ID is not specified in the widget extension, it
 simply re-uses the main map baselayer.  What should happen when the user
 switches to a commercial layer from the MapMenu in this case?
