Rather than cascading the geocoder calls, I would suggest calling the
geocoder when the "address" is selected. When the "quote" button is
pressed, call the GDirections service depending on which addresses
have been geocoded (if the via point hasn't been geocoded, don't
include it).

Actually, I would really suggest pre-geocoding the destinations and
only using coordinates or addresses that work. Only use the geocoder
to validate addresses that are entered by the user (which your form
currently doesn't look like it allows).
