I thought Padmapper got their start that way, by essentially providing a better apartment hunt interface than CL had at the time.

Which was a shame, because padmapper stuck it on a map and linked to Craigslist, instead of just taking the content. If Google Maps did it nobody would think twice.
CraigsList might make them think twice. I don't think they want to overly exhaust their own resources, what they have works for them.
And they got the banhammer, too.
