Saved places

Coming: Saved places are part of open issue #391. Do not create Places.md by hand. This guide describes the planned feature.

Saved places such as Home and Work will live in one plaintext file named Places.md in your Home. Each place will have a name, an exact position, and a radius.

The planned Settings → Account → Location setting will control location access. The setting will list the features that use location. Location data will stay on the Instance.

Apple Reminders can use a Saved place for an arrive or leave reminder. Apple Reminders runs the geofence. Calternal sends the location reminder with the Task over CalDAV. A future calternal iOS app can run its own geofence.

When issue #391 merges, this guide can include the finished controls and file rules.
