Comment:

 We don't really store the type of the address parts for searching, so we
 cannot make assumptions like that.

 There are a few heuristics in place to get that sorted out via reranking
 after the lookup (you'll see it works ok for "Olgastr, Tübingen"). The
 problem here is the same as in #5052, there are too many objects that
 match 'Olgastr, Tübingen', so search stops before the right one is found
 (the one where house number 4 belongs to) and the reranking never kicks
 in.

 Closing in favour of #5025.
