  I'm still not convinced that the Tiger Schema / Estimated tagging is any 
different from the Karlsruhe Schema, except for precision - all of which 
could be resolved by adding level of precision tags to the Karlsruhe Schema.

   A relation would work, but would certainly hide addressing details from 
any untrained community wishing to submit corrections.
