Qlik Cloud support for KML

I love the fact that the standard Map chart has support for US FIPS codes for counties - I can put in a FIPS code in an area layer, and Qlik maps it. By contrast, I have to load my own census tract KML files into my data model to get the same functionality for census tracts, and they are my largest memory consumer of all my fields. Does Qlik have tract mapping on its roadmap so we don't have to load our own?

A KML file, or better every custom map can be very detailed which means it can use more memory. Maybe you can simplify the kml file to reduce memory consumption.
