In Brazil some streets have a different postal code on each side. There seems to be no officially defined tag to represent this on ways. Nominatim supports [1] US TIGER tags tiger:zip_left and tiger:zip_right, even though those could be replaced with postal code boundary relations [2] in the future since they are areas [3]. It doesn't seem to make sense to recommend using them outside the US. Over here we could perhaps use a large number of postal code boundary relations, or painstakingly add a postal code to every address.
What would you recommend in this situation? Perhaps we should adopt postal_code:[side] and ask Nominatim developers to support that?
