Show shipment destination on the Optimizer Results Explainer Dashboard map

Currently the map shown in the Results Explainer Order Summary screen shows a Star icon for the node(s) selected to ship and a Dot icon for nodes considered. If you click on the icon the name/number of the node appears in a popup box.

It would be helpful if another icon (triangle? square?) could be added to the map that shows the destination of the shipments, and if you click on the destination icon the address or zip code appears in a popup box.
