Perhaps even easier and a bigger win, would be to import the postcode data. It is "only" points anyway, so many of the aspects making data imports hard, such as connectivity and duplication, don't apply as much here. Furthermore, given postcodes are unique identifiers, it would be very easy to spot which (full) postcodes are already in the database and only import those that aren't yet mentioned. So this dataset appears to be appropriate for a full scale import and together with the boundary data would improve searching and (reverse) geocoding with OSM data massively, as searching for their postcode is often one of the first things people try in the UK. Anyone up for organizing the import? General thoughts?
