I wrote Location Manager just for this a couple of months ago. Locations
can be defined on an admin page, and then accessed through a drop down
on the writing page.

It's made for 1.2, and involves some core hacks, but uses the standard
lat/lon columns in the posts table. I really haven't pursued developing
this further, because I only got minimal feedback.

I do like the idea moving the default to the profiles page. That should
be core.
