Maps view should be persistent thoughout "add zone" workflow

Retain Maps position through average workflow. So, if I go to maps and see that I or someone else is in a location I would like to save, I hit the edit button to enter the zone screen. At that point I lose the location I was just looking at. So then I try to find it in that screen (where my marker person is not shown because it disappears in the zone screen) and zoom into it again (I mean I dont do this now that I know what it does, but still), and then I hit “add zone” which then, again, loses the position I have on the map and I have to find it again without a marker.

Seems to me I should be able to, in the main map screen “flag the location” or “drop a pin” on a user or generally add a zone from that screen without it playing wackamole with me as I flow through the attempt. Having to look up locations on google maps and then do minor cartography to find a location you were just looking at a moment ago seems janky. Even if it requires separate refreshed screen, they should hold the location you were viewing.

Love HA. Thanks for listening to me rant.
