No clue. If we could do this accurately, we wouldn't be having this
discussion, since this is how the code is already supposed to work :)
The problem is that because Google isn't linear, the only way we have of
getting accurate corners from a center and zoom is to zoom there, and
ask the Google layer. (I think. Corrections welcome)
