Default Need to convince SOE to rename MAP2

I love the new EQ2Map!!

What I desire is a change the name of the minimap SOE provides. The name Map2 they use conflicts with the Map name when one tries to set a command to close the minimap from a toggle button. When I am in a zone where there is no map avail, I like to close the minimap. I know i can do it by right clicking and selecting close on the minimap itself but a button toggle is easier. So I added a button to my custom EQ2 startbutton window.

HOWEVER, if the Map (big one) was last set as focus, the button will only close the Big Map and reopen it on toggle. The minimap is left untouched open or close. To fix, I have to reclick the minimap to set the focus back to the minimap (named Map2) then my button works fine. An easy fix is change the name of the Map2 to MINIMAP. Seems the game will parse the "Map" part only and affects the last window named "Map"x that had focus. (where x can be null or 2 in this case).

UNLESS, there is a way to tell the button to set focus on "Map2" maybe that way it will ignore the "Map"?
