[Tagging] housenumber on node and area

[Colin Smale]

Don't know if this can happen in the Australian model, but there may be
multiple "visitor entrances" which are true alternatives (i.e. not one
main plus one side entrance). I would hope the routing would pick the
most appropriate entrance, given an ultimate destination in the middle
somewhere and not force everyone to use one entrance, irrespective of
their arrival route.

Huge objects like this tend to have several entrances, obviously a centroid will not work well. Also, a software could recognize automatically which entrances are inside or on the perimeter of a given (area) address. All this will not work with just a node.

 Using that logic the address should be on a node at the main visitor
entry ... only visitors will need that level of detail .. regulars will
make their own way once in close proximity.
