Good work, I remember the discussion last year and it do seem reasonable to 
tag these reference points for adresses. 

Could it be possible to use addr: as is the case with all other adress-
references?
addr:reference_point=Little_tree

hmm, or wait, that would of course be one the adress it self, I guess whole 
blocks of houses would have the same reference_point in their adresses. Well, 
that should be added to the page about addr: as it is not the same as 
addr:place.
