The simple fix we should want from Tesla (aside from the fancy fix of adding all CCS or CdM stations to your charging map) would be an option when navigating to any location that means, "Treat this location as a fast charger and precondition as appropriately." So nav to the charger (good idea anyway) and then click this option.
To nav to the chargers you often can find them on the map if you zoom in enough, but another option is to find them in an app like Google maps or any other app that can "share" a location. (Don't recall if plugshare or EA apps have this.) Then share the location with your Tesla (if not in wireless dead zone.) For extra credit Tesla could notice if a location has been shared in which is the location of a charger, or has a name suggesting it is a charger, and turning on the precondition bit. Tesla avoids having to maintain a database which is the hard thing we're avoiding. Another simple approach would be to define a code to be passed when sharing a location to the Tesla app which means "this is a fast charger." Then plugshare and the EA app and other apps could deliberately support sending charger locations to your Tesla app with this code.
