I think the discussions that led us here were focused on arbitrary regions, or at least proximity to a certain location. Blocking an administrative boundary per se might be of less interest for notes specifically, but I could see that being potentially relevant for other kinds of blocking.

> super fast geocoders (including one used by iD)

To elaborate, iD uses [country-coder](https://github.com/rapideditor/country-coder/), which stores simplified country boundaries in a [which-polygon](https://github.com/mapbox/which-polygon/) spatial index, which in turn is based on [RBush](https://github.com/mourner/rbush/), which is an R-tree implementation, like PostGIS.
