Map Making Tools

Hey guys, I've been using roll20 for a couple of years now and think it's great.  One of my biggest problems, however, is an inability to make Overworld maps for my games.  And while you can kind of make it work with certain tiles and pogs, it would be nice if the game had some tools to draw overland maps easier with the ability to quickly put down forest, grassland, and other biomes as well as the ability to draw unique town layouts.  While you can sort of do this now with the tiles, it doesn't always look great since the shapes are fairly set and streamlined.  I've been using some mapping programs and importing files, but it would be much easier if roll20 already had a tool for this.
They should have a magnet feature for tiles! That would be awesome for when doing the map layer
