Feature request: reversible routes

[RDMurray]

This is something I ran into recently. I created a route by dropping markers on my way to a destination, hoping to be able to follow it back the other way. This would be a really useful feature!

Voice vista does already have the ability to reverse routes, but it works by either creating a new route with the order of markers reversed, or you can make what they call a circular route which appends the markers in reverse to the end of the original route.

I think it would be better if there was an option to follow any route in either direction, so in addition to start route, there would be "Start Route in reverse".

Discussed amongst various team members in the consortium yesterday and agreed to make this as a High Priority item. From a UX point of view, the goal will be to keep the interaction as simple as possible so that an existing route can be reversed either from the current list of routes, or, of a route is selected, the option to reverse it is added to the list of actions so that it will appear below the 'Share' feature.

Also, create a new name for the reversed route which can then be edited. By default, use the following format "Reverse of [current route name]"

This issue was brought up to me today by Prof. Turner, I will look into it and see what I can do.
