[Geocoding] unexpected result when trying to geocode address

[Maciej Dąbek]

Hi,
I am trying to geocode some addresses and I encountered in my opinion wrong behavior of Nominatim.

I am trying to geocode address: Poland, Olsztyn, Wyszyńskiego 16. The request I am making looks like this:

http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/search?format=json&street=wyszynskiego%2016&city=olsztyn&country=pl

It does not return exact location. But when I provide detailed name of street:

http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/search?format=json&street=kardynala%20stefana%20wyszynskiego%2016&city=olsztyn&country=pl

it works fine. 

By detailed name of street I mean "Kardynała Stefana Wyszyńskiego" instead of "Wyszyńskiego". "Kardynała" means cardinal (and is often omitted), "Stefana" is first name (which is often omitted).   

Is it how the geocoding is supposed to work?
