minimap modes

would it be possible to expose the minimap to Lua Modding API? I am curious about adding additional minimap modes that the user can switch between.

overlays might be interesting such as area protection information or public points of interest.
Maybe some way to display info from one of the waypoint mods - ah yes - api for mods to hook in you said.
Indeed to have the minimap controllable by mods might be a good feature to use it for example in an achievement system that unlocks the minimap feature after something the player has to do - hmm - actually I'm not sure if that hasn't allready been done - time to search the forum again it seems....

I think that something like this is being worked on: https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/3747
