You could expand this a little and possibly select items from multiple 
location lists and then select
"Find the shortest route to complete all tasks"
And have it map the entire selected list of waypoints in some order.. 
Possibly even order by the number of tasks/items in any one location to 
optimize the amount of work completed.
