Because I promised to write some guidelines for the import of AGIV
addresses, I want to know what I should write. I also think my problem is
more common than yours. By this I mean that it show be obvious to any
mapper to tag a POI so that it's address is returned correctly.

Maybe Belgium is unique regarding its "administrative borders". Although
the Germans also have problems with cities such as Hamburg, because it
misses an administrative layer (see talk mailing list of the past 2 weeks).
And in India they have a problem with their country borders

All those problems are important to a group of people, but they are all
exceptions to the general rules. So maybe we should just take up all those
complaints with the Nominatim developers, because they might not be aware
of all those exceptions.
