[talk-ph] adding place reference to a POI

Hi,

Some GPS/data contributor (not osm contributor), suggested I add place
reference to POI like in the name tag Jollibee (Morato) or
Jollibee-Morato something.  Adding this should allow referencing of
POI names in GPS units.  However, we have an is_in tag in OSM.

I feel it's the gps map compiler (mkgmap) who should do the work for
this.  Any ideas?
