      Also.. I still plan on making fully dynamicly generated worlds working..

      If you wreck the precision of the elevation, that becomes impossible.
     
     
The underlying problem with elevations is the fact that the
worldmaps are not random, and the fact that people really want
to edit the worldmaps.

Personally I dislike randomization of maps in most any form, and
past discussions have shown that I'm not alone with this opinion.
Randomization gets you a lot of quantity, but never quality.

Hence, I'm not in favour of preserving a broken elevation system
for the doubtable feature of "dynamically generated worlds".


I'd like to have "hand-made" worldmaps in the long run, and a
weather system dealing with that in a reasonable kind of way.

Well, just my opinion.
