 It would be nice if Nominatim was able to match partial housenumber i.e.

 Searching for "sankt petri kyrkogata 3a, lund" or "3a, sankt petri
 kyrkogata, lund" returns, as expected,
 http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/details.php?place_id=17837153

 However, searching for "sankt petri kyrkogata 3, lund" only finds the
 street, not any address nodes. The preferred behaviour would be to return
 all house numbers matching "3" excluding alphabetic suffixes i.e.

 http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/details.php?place_id=17837153
 http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/details.php?place_id=17983236
 http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/details.php?place_id=17528428

 and perhaps give the average of the positions of those nodes as a result
 too.
