[OSM-dev] nominatim-like wildcard search

[Per Eric Rosén]

Thanks. Of course there is no idea implementing it against current 
Nominatim, if it doesn't support partial names. Neither doing it with 
Overpass and client-side sorting may be the most efficient solution.

Until Nominatim 2 is ready, I'll probably (this afternoon perhaps) hack 
together some utility that transform data from a local postgis (used for 
mapnik) to some more search friendly structure, and export with a simple 
JSON API on top of.
