We think that using <figcaption> directly is not appropriate, since maps don't necessarily share semantics with figures. So, <mapcaption> may be an appropriate new element name. The relation to the parent map viewer element should be quite similar to that between <figcaption> and the parent <figure>, we think.

Note that
<figcaption>implements the HTMLElement WebIDL interface.
