[OSM-talk] Postboxes

As I'm doing my mapping I'm noting locations of postboxes.  Postboxes 
seem to have a unique postbox number with the first segment of the 
postcode then a number, e.g.

NW1 124

After creating a node and marking it as amenity="post_box" I'm storing 
this in the ref field of the node.  Could this be used by 
freethepostcode to help mark postcode boundaries?
