In #4908 @philsward suggested that there was a need to implement the same feature to include taxonomy terms:
Taxonomies are used for a lot more than tagging content; for example they can be used as select lists. This means that currently, any taxonomies that you don't want to be indexed, have to be added as a disallow to the robots file. ... The architect could opt to remove the path field so there is no "public" alias.
In #100 we introduced a "Hide path display" checkbox in the "Display settings" tab when configuring a content type:

The Drupal version of the contrib module that offers this functionality already supports more entities:
Supported entities
This project includes sub modules that are responsible to add this behavior to different entities. The currently supported entities are:
- Nodes
- Taxonomy terms
- Users
- Files
- Field collection
- Profile 2
- Bean
You'll only need to enable the modules that you wish to add the functionality for. More entities are likely to be supported in the future. If you have a suggestion, submit a feature request using the issue queue.
I think that we should extend this feature in core to support more entities, at least taxonomy terms.

I would like the user to be able to just apply the filters and be shown BOTH the list table AND the map. Is it possible? Yes, of course. You can use Views...
have a view show contents in table and leaflet format simultaneously.
