Automated waypoint navigation and Magnetometer heading hold

What would be the best way to get automated waypoint navigation for Arducopter right now? Backport changes from the ArduCopterMega branch to trunk or RC2? How viable/feasible is this right now? What about Magnetometer heading hold i.e. fly automatically on a straight line on a given compass direction?

 

Thanks in advance for any hints, answers or comments!

Currently you cannot, next release should have navigation. Current versions only supports position/heading/alt holds. Having higher level navigation needs still a lot of testing and programming.
