Given that Locus app & web don't have any plans for 3D visualization, this suggestion would be excellent partial solution for seeing the difficulty or scenic beauty of planned route.

Ideally add to right-click context menu (mockup below):

for example from current Locus WebPlanner position & zoom

https://web.locusmap.app/en/?lat=52.188732&lng=-9.911041&z=11

==> https://www.google.com.au/maps/@52.188732,-9.911041,11z

==> https://earth.google.com/web/@52.188732,-9.911041,355.90113616a,4949.19585981d,35y,36.42360989h,79.1829532t,-0r

After some experimentation I don't fully understand all the earth.good.com query string parameters, but it still mostly works.
