Coccinella doesn't have the capability of obtaining geolocation from any GPS/location \
system and relies on the user typing their latitude/longitude into the UI so they \
don't have the concept of accuracy.  
imov uses GPS or celltower/wifi positioning data so it does have accuracy \
information, but it is expressed in meters not arc minutes. Right now the error \
element isn't being used at all though.  
I think it is safe to eliminate it!
