Directions pre-filled field will not work after zoon

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Can be seen on example site: 
http://storelocator.googlecode.com/git/examples/panel.html
2: Click the marker and pop the ballon ( ref: http://c183.us/25m )
3: Click the "directions" and the left panel fills the marker location as your 
"destination" ( ref: http://c183.us/25n). This is the correct behavior. 
4. Now try same steps but this time hit "zoom here" first ( ref: 
http://c183.us/25o )
5. Now click "directions". The pre filled location field in the left panel is 
gone ( ref: http://c183.us/25p ).
6. Without this field what happens is you type in an address and the map 
centers on it instead of giving out directions ( ref: http://c183.us/25q ).

Using Chrome 21, OS X 10.6.8

I have noticed this defect as well.
I've tracked it down to there being no store selected when the zoom is clicked.
Trying to add a method to select a store is proving to be a mission also.
