Hello all, our team has come into an interesting situation regarding road name 
abbreviations, we know that as a policy we spell out any and all abbreviations 
on the OSM map, however it looks like we may have run into an exception in the 
use of "Saint vs St" 
(https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Invalid_Abbreviation_Expansion).  It looks 
like the use of "St" instead of spelling out "Saint" is accepted within the 
mapping community, and might be the proper English spelling, but we want to get 
the response from the community as what is the accepted/preferred use when 
naming roads specifically, should we be spelling out Saint, or using St?
