Yes, that will work for adding tags that are missing (missing = TinyMCE 
doesn't understand them and removes them). You can also use a plugin to 
make that a bit easier 
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/advanced-tinymce-configuration/

The problem here is not that TinyMCE doesn't understand the <map> tag, 
but rather that wpautop treats any line break as a <br /> producing 
invalid (unreadable for the browser?) HTML when loading the content into 
TinyMCE. The solution is not to make your HTML in the HTML editor look 
pretty by using line breaks but make it work (btw TinyMCE is set to 
remove all line breaks when outputting the content).
