Include different styles of track lines #310

For instance, it would be cool to have a layer style that looks like old 
strategy computer games. In the beginning, there would be a black screen and 
with every move you, literally, discover more of the map.

You could start with a black layer on top of the usual map, and instead of a 
colored track line the black layer would get more and more transparent.

This would be particularly interesting for city travels since the intended look 
would clearly highlight the already visited streets and places.
