Hello

I'm using the Geocoding API for an iPhone application: I added a box
where users can search a location, and I display results on a map (of
course, a Google Map :) ).

However, while realizing that, I found a big problem: how far do I
need to zoom?
The documentation only says the server returns an integer (Accuracy
Level) that tells me if it's a city, region, etc... But, suppose I'm
searching a city: I can't use the same zoom level for Milan and my
town where just 8.000 souls live!!!

So, here comes the nice part.
I found that in responses there was an additional set of information:
ExtendedData -> LatLonBox.
That is perfect, since I can use it to determine exactly how big is
the city/region/road/etc in latitude and longitude.

My question is... If this data is so useful... Why does the
documentation omit telling about it? Is it a reliable information? Or
it might be absent in many responses? In all the tests I did, I've
always found that field; but I could just have been lucky
