Localization

Add menu for selecting the language and implement translation using i18n.

Ordering and Grouping of Plan Components

In the editor, there should be a way to have consistent ordering of the lines, independent labels and nodes.
Additionally, a way to group items could be useful, combined with controls to drag and drop selected components for easy organizing.

Optimizations

For optimization of load and render times here are a few ideas:

1. Merge inline line segments. Easily lessens the amount of line segments to render by 80-90%.
2. Return this list of line segments directly to the client, instead of a list of connections per line.
3. Generate CSS in the backend and supply it with the planState API calls.
4. Cache planState API call results in the backend, as planStates don't change in the database.

Make Data JSON Serializable

The source data for metro maps is currently Javascript, as this allows for more flexibilty when building metro maps from code.
In order to store the data in a database and to be able to load third party metro map data without executing arbitrary Javascript, the data must be JSON serializable.
The serialized data must be in a format that allows manual editing and is as simple as possible, while keeping a high information density.

Dark Mode Toggle

Currently, everything is in dark mode. Add a toggle for enabling and disabling dark mode.
