Why not also enable options to disable zoom, drag, pag, scroll, etc. through the optional query string parameters?

Any update on this issue? Hiding the infobox seems really simple to add and it would solve this higlighting region problem for many people, because many of us could use the embed api for this purpose:

Please add it and you'll make many complaints go away from that other thread.

Description
There a developer suggested in a comment to use the Embed API for this purpose until support for this is implemented in the JS API.
The Embed API is usable for this in place mode, because it highlights the area of the place searched, the only problem is it places a big white infobox on the map which often covers a considerable part of the map and is unnecessary for this usage.
Please add an option to the embed api to hide this infobox. The above use case refers to place mode, but hiding the infobox may be useful in other modes too, so you may want to consider adding this option for all modes, not just for place mode.
