Thomas, François's control does a bit more than that. Basically it
activates itself when the features are added and when the map is
moved, and deactivates itself when features are removed and the layer
gets empty. The auto activation/deactivation stuff is usefull because
it disables/enables this control's button.

Yeah, I think this could make an interesting addin.
