Improve Location block #88

This should probably be a dynamic block, so that it can be used in a theme template.

If we had a separate Weather block, we could add an option for icons and/or a description. Wouldn’t have to worry about a "separator" as admins could just add whatever in between the two blocks (if used together).

But there'd be no way to conditionally hide this separator, it'd be hardcoded into the template; so if the weather API is down or the plugin misconfigured, we'd get a separator but no weather info (for instance).

Better keep 'em together and provide a text field or something, let users choose a separator character.

A text field, or a ... ButtonGroup RadioGroup? Choose from a number of predefined charaters? (We could always do a backend filter, too.)
