I'd noticed that, while there are ways to recreate the TNG Holodeck, there's no official interior map, same goes with the Voyager Holodeck, so I was curious if there was any chance we might see either one in the Foundry.

I think the reason that the TNG holodeck is an object is because, well, it's a holodeck. If it was an interior map, the only things you could place inside would be the things that you could fit within the room. That doesn't make a very convincing holodeck setup if you want it to behave like it did on the show.
I guess you could have a map look like the interior to the holodeck before its activated. Then have 50 maps or so to choose from for the game to load up. It could work.
