[OSM-talk] Extending the 'geo:' uri scheme: Adding parameter 'osmid'

[stevea]

I am “with” Andy here, yet I am also “with" Frederik here:  you might be able to get away with this “most of the time,” but when it fails (and it will), you’ll be disappointed and perhaps even upset with OSM.  There is simply no reason why we should be suggesting or supporting this.  Because it WILL fail.

For that reason, I say “don’t do it.”  And please don’t suggest others should, either.  At least once, it won’t end well, and that will be one too many times.
