Hello menion, thanks for using your time to answer me!

I wanted to create a plugin for Locus Map which has a new input form(name, password) and provides authentication via some third party service. After reading Locus Map documentation, I think it is not possible.

So, I have to create a separate, native Android app and communicate with Locus via API?

My scenario is like this:
1. User provides name and password
2. Server validates the user
3. User submits his geolocation to server every x minutes
4. Server responds with KML file with features close to the user
5. KML file is shown in Locus Map

Is this possible with using Locus Map?

1. Creating a new input form/popup with 2 input fields - "nickname", "password", and button "validate".
Documentation makes me think this is not possible and I can only work with existing forms and buttons via the Locus Map API.

2. Authentication? I want plugin functionality only to be accessible to authorized users. If they don't provide a valid username/password which are validated in third party database, they can't access the plugin functionality.
