[Feature Request] Ability to see player locations (if the world folder is read rather than region)

Just a head thumbnail of each player at their location to mark where they currently are (allows for a more interesting map for serverowners to show their players)

Of course this should be toggleable in settings because it will obviously take longer to load in all the players.

Here are three tools you could use to get player head icon based on their username or UUID (that way you can simply read the playerdata file name maybe)

This sounds interesting, but is only really possible to do in real-time with single player worlds (which then again is pointless). The problem is that the player's location is saved inside their file, not in the file name, so it will have to parse all player files before starting to display their locations.
