Pieren - thanks for pointing out that "area=yes" is highway only. How could the documentation for it be clearer [1]?
Seems to me then that starting to use a value "block" for the "place" [2] key would be an appropriate solution. Examples: So for a block QNB12 in Brasilia, the tagging would be: place=block name=QNB12 For a block C2 in Mannheim, the tagging would be: place=block name=C1 (right now I find area=yes instead of place=block in Mannheim) Comments?
