Ref the *.gpx files, will be interested to see how everyone makes out with this new feature. There are lots of tools out there to create them.
Be advised that <wpt> style *.gpx files are not supported.
Be advised that not even a known blocked road will be excluded from a <trk> style routing, so if you have some 'local knowledge' that suggests a better route, best to include it in your *.gpx in advance if you can.
