- **added** — Add experimental ImageSource.setWarp and ImageSource.getWarp methods, choosing between auto, perspective, and flat warp of the image
- **fixed** — Fix incorrect image source on projection on globe view
- **fixed** — Fix the globe zooming itself in when panned away from a pole at the minimum zoom, where the latitude zoom compensation was applied on top of the constrain's own clamp
- **fixed** — Fix dragging the globe from the empty space around it, which barely moved the map and often in the wrong direction
