RE the Map changes...

Seams to me that it should be possible to provide a template for the dynamic POI's with placeholders for whatever key is used to match the Journal reference, maybe a second key for the specific POI within that quest if POI IDs aren't unique across quests.

As long as the key(s) remains consistent from client to client, journal to journal, and the generated POI's inherit and fire scripts attached to the template, it should be possible to do a lot of script manipulation on the generated POIs.

The hard part then becomes discovering what the key values are if we don't have the dictionary on our end out-of-game. Not hard so much as a laborious process of using script to log the key values from a toon that has the active quest.
