Is there a way to connect two roads via a ferry route? If not, consider adding that to the editor. It can save many miles if the router can use them. But also add a check box on the app for "Avoid ferry routes" so if people who don't want to be routed across a ferry can avoid them (just like the "Avoid toll road" option).

It would also be nice to be able to have ferry routes show notes for times, since most of them around me don't run 24x7, but either on a time schedule (e.g. 7:00 AM to 5:30 PM) or only daylight hours.
