Alastair, I get what you're saying and I don't have an answer for you... But I wanted to offer (in the event you weren't aware) that the 8 buttons in the center console are programmable by putting whatever function you want on the iDrive screen and then holding one of the programmable buttons.
I'm finding all kinds of uses for these buttons, especially as a way to get me "back where I was". I've stored a map view that allows me to just get back to zero when I get stuck in some wonky screenage.
