A) I'm leaving the basic location alone, but probably changing the name of
it, because it's not the reference location
B) I'm adding an element to the offset, or adding some new element at the
same level as the offset, that can have some fields that are in a PIDF
civic, specifically, CAtypes, or a new geo location that is as general as
the original (point or shape, WGS84 CRS, ...)
C) This refinement of the reference point for a civic is constrained to be
more specific -- that is the CAtypes have to be more specific then the last
one in the initial location
D) With a geo, the only way to make any use of this is to specify a location
with a large uncertainty in the original location, and then specify the same
location with a smaller uncertainty in the extension. We would probably
want to constrain the implementation to that. This means that it's Option
A for geo.
E) I imagine there is no reason to require the second location -- that is,
if you just have the original location, and an offset, it's fine.
