Map:  it would be nice to have some visual border/other indication as to
which the 'fixed' coloured regions are (i.e. the ones that are
pre-coloured at the start of the game and can't be changed by the user),
since it's frustrating to fiddle around changing things late in the game
only to find that one of the regions you wanted to swap can't be
altered!  But presumably that's a question for the source
implementation....
