Comment (by florian_rittmeier):

 Regarding the third case: Would it be a good solution to modify osm2pgsql
 /output-gazetter.c so that it adds an additional alt_name containing the
 variant of the name without spaces and minus signs? So if the name tag
 holds a composita the non composita variant would be added as alternative.

 The question is, should this only apply to the name tag or to all name
 like tags (tags like int_name, nat_name, loc_name...)?
