Some of the map pin logos are useful some a bit ambiguous. I'd like to see some logos added

A city logo to plan city placements
A logo for each district to plan out cities

right now I'm using the in game logos but if the next patch gives me the logos the game uses for money, culture, faith industry etc I'd prefer using them.
 
This is the first civ game I've ever needed pins. Though only to mark where villages are, to make up for the ui deficiency caused by the over stylised and consequently washed out fog of war.

The 'add pin' button activating an 'add pin mode' is clunky and not particularly intuitive. The cleaner and more conventional way of doing it would to simply click & drag a pin icon from the tray and place it onto the map (then pop-up the naming window).
It'd require fewer clicks, fewer mouse gestures, and fewer ui elements.

Also the naming window could be smarter; suggest a context appropriate default label value (e.g. drop a label onto a village and it'd suggest 'village'), and perhaps remember the previous non-default value.
