    <div class="moz-cite-prefix">We should stick to the current well
      known scheme, thinking about this renderer issue... it makes no
      sense to manoevre around a faulty renderer, being it nominatim or
      a tileserver.  If a search for a street + housenumber,  city
      returns nothing, but a search for that same street, city without
      the number does return fine, who's fault is that?  Search engines
      are suppose to be 'best effort' .  The correct behavior should be
      to drop the housenumber from the search parameters (no exact match
      is found), and then lower the resolution of the result set to
      encompass the street (visually).  In nominatim that would
      translate to bunch of hits  when searching for an address, when
      reverse searching for a coordinate that would just return :
      streetname , postalcode, city, country  no housenumber.<br>
      <br>
      That proposal ,I mentioned that in a earlier comment already,  (to
      be aware of it's existance) but it's flawed as you noticed.  Also,
      there are 203 occurences in the whole database like this:<br>

      <br>
      Safe to say, it would be a lost effort following this scheme.  But
      also, we would be the only ones using it imho ....  We should just
      keep tagging the karlsruhe way.<br>
