[openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website] Add profile location (PR #5302)

[Tom Hughes]

This seems like an awful lot of complication...

It seems to me that we have the option of either allowing the user to input freetext, or of generating something from the location with Nominatim but this tries to do both at once which just makes things very complicated and probably quite confusing.

How often does nomination actually manage to match? I don't see any indication of zoom on the reverse geocode, and you're just taking the last name, so how likely is it that will match what the user entered even if they are trying to be accurate? Are we just going to wind up telling everybody their location doesn't match?
