On the "map" visual you are only able to add one legend which is a color legend. Often times you need two legends. Several other BI tools like Tableau provide the option to have a legend based on "Shapes" and a legend based on "color". For example. If I want to make all points on my map of people that are born in the USA a circle, born in Mexico a Square, and born in "other" a star. Then have another legend that shows those older than 25 green and those younger than 25 red. This would make the maps visual far more appealing.

I go would like to go a step further and allow the basic map to have multiple layers - which can then be formatted by shape / colour, and not necessarily linked to the other layers so they can be either static points, independent of filters, or linked to the filters and change accordingly.
