Currently, the field for specifying a place for an event is a type-ahead that returns a few matching hits from the places database. See https://www.familysearch.org/en/help/helpcenter/article/how-do-i-use-the-place-research-tool-in-my-family-history-research for instructions.

I think it would be helpful to have a little icon (maybe a map) next to each place-edit field that posp of a "lite" verion of the Place Research Tool, a map that suports searching near a point suggested by other events already associated with the profile.
