[Geocoding] Missing prefix direction, geocode fails

[Brian May]

Hi,

I have been testing nominatim searches at openstreetmap.org and found a 
problem when not including the prefix direction. It seems like the 
prefix direction is required if it is in the street name, otherwise the 
search fails completely.

This search works:
2755 SW BRIDGEWAY ST PALM CITY FL

This search returns no results:
2755 BRIDGEWAY ST PALM CITY FL

Shouldn't nominatim be able to handle not including a prefix direction?

However, this search does returns a result:
2755 BRIDGEWAY PALM CITY FL

And this does not:
2755 SW BRIDGEWAY PALM CITY FL

Thanks,

Brian
