Built in view extent and centering #29

Views are different between the application and API. We need a way to make sure 
all the features in the KML file are visible, and to center on them all or on a 
single feature.

See here for a workaround function that'll give you a view of a rectangle 
(which you
could generate from feature extents)

A method in the API to retrieve the windows bounding box data without 
having to send a view based refresh query to a server.

Something like:
GEWindow.getBBox()
or 
GEWindow.getWest()
GEWindow.getSouth()
GEWindow.getNorth()
GEWindow.getEast()

A workaround is to send the data to a server via a 
network link and then return the required data in a kml file.
