Is possible to pick a coordinate on a map component and save it into a column?

Question

I read in the documentation about displaying a coordinate on a map component. 
I would like to have the user select a point on a map and then use this coordinate as input data in a coordinate column.

Questions:
 
Would something like this be possible "out-of-the-box" in the SF using the maps extension?  
Is there except for the paragraph in the documentation some additional documentation about this?

Any help is apprecciated.

Regards,
Dennis.

The documentation here (extenders in general) and here (maps) would be a good place to start.Do add a topic in the Ideas section if this solution becomes cumbersome.

Hi Dennis,Using a point on the map as input for a column or task parameter is currently not supported. Feel free to create a topic in the Ideas section.You can place a marker on the map and have the user drag the marker to the right location. There is a topic about this on the community site.Mobile devices can also use the current location as input for a latitude/longitude field. More info here.
