This is exactly the sort of thing the whole "Show us a better way" site was supposed to encourage. I took a stab at some stuff using various sources but didn't have enough time (Edit: or skill, or access to data sources). While I appreciate some of the game related stuff this looks most promising for allowing people to easy see statistical information at-a-glance, data journalism etc. The NapTAN datbase would be an awesome addition that should be relatively easy to add. Regarding the data.gov.uk team. They do have a twitter account and website, hit them, hit them hard. Even if they can only smooth the way for data access (Like the building heights) that would be awesome.
