[openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website] Add short links to OSM objects (Issue #5244)

[Tom Hughes]

Implementing it in the routing here is certainly one possibility yes - it does mean that if you use osm.org then you will get a double redirect.

I don't think we could (or would want to) put it at the top level if it was across all domains, so we'd need something like `/go/` in the existing shortcodes to create a namespace for it.

Yes the existing shortcodes encode the location and (optionally) an object - you can generate them by visiting a node and using the side panel though so you don't need to work anything out.

Then there's the obvious question of what the mapping use-case (as against end user use-case) is for these, and how user's would generate them.
