Excellent, this has been needed for some time, and opens up lots of possibilities.
Not tested it yet, as I am up mountains.
Just a thought, would it be possible to assign colour when adding maps to another map, so things like water paths can be shown on an overview without having to change the maps individually
Eg
map detail
Map1 -colour[100 0 0]
Map 2 -colour [0 100 0]
Map3 -colour [0 0 100]
endmap
map Flow
Map1 -colour[70 0 0]
Map 2 -colour [70 0 0]
Map3 -colour [0 0 100]
endmap
Thanks

You can also specify the colour on the "map" line (which is probably
clearer):
map 2012.map -projection plan -colour [0 70 0]
# etc
endmap
Jenny Black produced an example showing what you can do with this patch:
