I doubt that auto-grokking these things is the way to go, since there
are so many different address formats. Implement fifteen address
formats, and somebody is sure to show you the sixteenth one which you
haven't thought of.
Here's a different approach: an address is just a sequence of lines.
But it is possible to mark up part of an address as the street name,
or the (house) number, or the zip code, or whatever. Then the address
will always look right.
