Maybe but if it's on a website you would never need to enter it manually on iDrive. You would always use Send to Car on Google Maps or via iPhone on BMW Remote. You can also use Google Local Search in the car and then add as a destination. Ultimately, if you have Internet coverage you shouldn't be entering co-ords manually on iDrive, unless someone just handed you them on a piece of paper. Could also be risky if you get one digit wrong!!
I'm not defending the nav for not allowing you to enter co-ords, just being pragmatic
