Does that include Québec? If so, I'll stop manual tagging of addresses,
it is time consuming! :)

As for addr:block, how is it different from putting an addr:housenumber
node on the corner of the street and using an addr:interpolation line in
between? (similar to this: http://osm.org/go/cIrN_LB8s-- the renderer
somehow do now show all the numbers).  It looks to me as a duplicate way
of tagging things.

My 2 ¢.
