I don’t think I will get to use them (my trial is almost over) but it’s nice to know for the future.

Check out the mother of all map modifications for WoW (at least when I played), Cartographer. http://wowace.com/wiki/Cartographer It's light-weight, modular, and can make WoW's map do pretty much anything you want it to. For annoation, I think the module you want is Cartographer Notes. http://wowace.com/wiki/Cartographer/Notes

I have played so many different ones that features like that run together a little. Wow, I thought this comment would be helpful when I started it.....

Eventually you challange him to a fight at around lv 40. He's really tough lol. Luke, if you're looking for new places to level try the eastern kingdoms. Take the zepplin from Orgimar. The undead zones should be around your level now. The elite armored guy is for a quest. Eventually you challange him to a fight at around lv 40. He’s really tough lol.

If he's a quest giver, but you're too low to get it, there would've been a whitish grey exclamation mark above him. That guy must’ve been a quest objective perhaps.

Oddly enough, it is called MapNotes. :) There is one addon I am aware of that I believe will allow you to add notes to a map. Oddly enough, it is called MapNotes. )
