[openstreetmap-website] Routing (#716)

[danstowell]

My personal opinion: definitely launch as-is. I like @jfirebaugh's approach workflow-wise but not UI-wise: discoverability issue, as mentioned; plus adding the "get directions" block to every search result would reduce the number of results that fit on a page quite dramatically. So - I don't think that either of the visual designs hits perfection, but I don't think we're going to hit perfection by waiting here...

If I'm forced to say which of your three options to plump for then it's the first, "prefer current UI".

An early launch of the feature will draw lots of comments (of course) which will be food for thought for a future rethink of the interaction design of it. So IMHO there's very little cost-without-benefit to going ahead.
