Google Maps feature requests

1) tinyURL-like links, automatically.

Their URLs are better than some, but this is not highly emailable:
http://www.google.com/search?q=google maps
site%3Aevhead.com&sourceid=mozilla-search&
start=0&start=0&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&
client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official
2) The email link isn't very useful if I'm using your (as in Google's) email service. Can't you read my cookie and send me to that if I'm a user? (I know you don't like to integrate your products, but I'm not suggesting you link it to Blogger or something crazy like that. ;)
