[Tagging] Feature Proposal - RFC - addr:interpolation on closed ways and nodes

[ipswichmapper at tutanota.com]

How would this break routing and navigation? As far as I know, geocoders currently read hypenated addresses as ranges anyway (correct me if I'm wrong) so this proposal won't change what happens to hypenated addresses without addr:range tag. (Ime. Navigation is already broken in NYC)
