Point for location outside of screen bounds
New Feature
A change was made that prevents points from being calculated by location if the position is out of the bounds of the view.

There are times when locations are still needed outside the bounds of a view for when elements are drawn that bridge the on/off screen space.
The existing function can remain but a separate function is needed the doesn't have the same bound restrictions. Or any publicly accessible location to point conversion that references the underlying map.
Why
We cannot upgrade our integration of mapbox because this causes a regression. We need to be able to calculate positions of off screen elements to correctly draw bridging elements on top of the map.
I have the same issue. I've made a fork and introduced an absolutePoint call alongside the point function that does not fit it to the screen size. It works fine for my purpose.
I would be happy to create a pull request for this if it's not considered too much of a hack.
