It's not possible to set the default map coordinates - the view reverts to the current geography

[adieyal]

In some cases it is desirable to set the default map location for a profile to be a custom set of coordinates. The should be achievable by using the default_coordinates key in the config

"default_coordinates": {
    "lat": -33.5228901,
    "long": 18.4887181,
    "zoom": 10
  }

it doesn't work however as the map loaded with those coordinates and then pans to the root geography

"root_geography": "CPT"
