    I agree, though personally I think they should sell different kinds of maps than cartographers, so they're both useful.
    Maybe maps to the nearest villages, or even nearest biomes, as there's no way to locate a particular biome in survival, without lucky exploration.

    Maybe dungeons and/or Strongholds

    They should trade locater maps to all sorts of places. Can someone please check out my use for the enderdragon egg? My large paragragh has all the conditions!

    I like that idea. I find the traders don't offer a lot of interesting items a lot of the time, and I would really like to be able to buy maps.

    Further, when the trader despawns, he leaves his llamas behind, and they just linger around, meaning if I spend a few hours at my fort, I easily end up with a dozen llamas making noise and climbing around on rooftops, this is really annoying, and I wish they would despawn with him.

    This would be a really fun way to make every Trader a treat! I think it would be cool if he offered different locations from dolphins and cartographers—dungeons, desert wells, desert temples,  that sort of thing! He could even give maps to random biomes, giving you a way to potentially track down obscure biomes like mushroom plains and coral reefs!

    Yes, that would be VERY good. The Wandering Trader could be a rare villager who sells maps of biomes.

    They should exclusively sell a map to the nearest village.

    I thought about that idea as well, and liked it very much!

    maybe the wandering trader could sell random normal maps (like treasure maps) with no indicator of the players location, but a structure located and named (like he randomly found the structure on his way) (but with a low chance of lets say 10 % per trader)

    maybe he could also sell maps with specific biomes, with the players indicator on the map (with that, finding biomes would be much easier and the trader much more interesting) (when coming to the lore, he could have wandered around and randomly find the location, where you have the chance to copy it on a empty map)
