In Belgium, the only two mandatory field are "house number" and "street name", postcode and municipality/city can generally be derived from administrative boundaries and thus are optional. I see a lot of people using ID and adding those, as well as the country which is really not needed (because the country is the one thing that you could always be found easily as the boundaries are always present). The ID template must not be taken a mandatory field, but only as a suggestion on what information is generally useful for this feature (in the entire world, as i think that the template are not different by countries ?!). :-)
