Ah, I see that tagging would create a lot of false positives in my

My understanding is that addr:postcode should be used only as part of
an address. So if you want to put a postcode on a street (or part of a
street) then addr:postcode isn't the best tag to use. Instead, there's
a postal_code=* tag defined in the wiki at
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:postal_code which would seem
to be more appropriate for this use case.



Maybe. But rather than open up a whole tagging debate and then potentially start a retagging exercise, would it make sense as an immediate fix for the tool to ignore objects with a highway tag?
