MGLMapView's uses its private locationManager property and implements Apple's CLLocationManagerDelegate as the default location/course tracking provider; practically coupling our map view to Apple.

Exposing this property, and changing the dependencies for a custom MGLLocationManager and MGLLocationManagerDelegate respectively; will enable use cases where iBeacons or WIFI location technology provides the location/course tracking, or where finer tracking is required, or navigation simulation.

This will also simplify route simulation for our Nav SDK according to mapbox/mapbox-navigation-ios#1443 (comment).
