Yes, it will be interesting to see match with street names. Together with 
addresses as open data, we also got streets (with full geometries) as open 
data! However, since 1) most streets are already there and with good names, 2) 
addresses are really lacking in OSM data, 3) conflating points is far easier 
than conflating LineStrings, and 4) addresses seems more valuable overall, we 
decided to start with import of addresses first. There is another "team" that 
is actually preparing street import, but links you send are valuable once we 
have both to cross-check!

Thanks for taking time to read and give suggestion! Branko
