Map Template selection UI bug

Technical Positioning
User experience consistency, reliable settings persistence.
SaaS Insight & Market Implications
This bug indicates a fundamental UI/UX failure in TREK's settings management. Users expect immediate visual confirmation of selections and persistent display of current configurations. The inability to see a selected map template or the currently active template upon reopening settings erodes trust in the application's reliability. For a self-hosted travel planner, such basic functionality gaps can significantly impact user adoption and satisfaction, particularly for features central to trip visualization. This suggests potential issues in front-end state management or data persistence layers, critical for any application aiming for a polished user experience.
