Hi all,

got no feedback on this:
http://gis.19327.n8.nabble.com/Possible-problem-with-global-search-index-since-r3875-tp5894963p5895076.html

The patch changes the default style so that road refs are no longer added to 
the road name, instead they are added as an additional label,

So, a way like this 
http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/115469125
with name=Hamburger Straße, ref=B 105
will appear as "Hamburger Straße" in the map and will be found when searching 
for "B 105".

Without the patch the road appears as "B 105 Hamburger Straße" (the B 105 in a 
highway shield) in the map 
and as "Hamburger Straße (B105) or "Hamburger Straße" or "B 105 Hamburger 
Straße" (without shield) when searching for Hamburger. 
I always found that very irritating.

Please comment or propose improvements.
Gerd
