    Hi,

    The abbreviations list is really useful. When I'm hammering down a rough single track at 60km/h I don't want to read a line of text (or the first half of it, because the rest doesn't fit on my display), I just want to see a couple of letters and know what's coming up. Just lately it seems to have got less useful though. For example:

    If the instruction is "Turn Right" I just want to see "RT" (for right turn).

    If the instruction is "Turn right onto Cotter Road" I just want to see "RT Cotter Road" (because I'm not an idiot, I can figure out that I should turn onto the road that is named).

    If the instruction is "Sharp right turn onto Cotter Road" I just want to see "Sh RT Cotter Road"

    It all sounds easy, except it seems that custom abbreviations are now being sorted alphabetically, and only the first is applied, so now in that final case, and looking at my 15 character display, I see "Sharp RT onto C", which is really unhelpful as I reach the intersection of Cotter, Cuthbert and Cumberland Roads!

    So can we please have the ability to manually configure our own abbreviations lists?

    Thanks.
