[sldev] Option to make minimap display map data?

[Nexii Malthus]

And to the question of additional useful data, I think it would be
great to be able to differentiate higher or lower prims from the
minimap. I think what could be done is incrementally darken or lighten
the minimap objects based on height slightly, I think I am going to
try this in my custom client.
