Maybe our search box could do the same, either directly or through integrating into Nominatim. I wouldn't suggest storing w3w addresses in the main OSM database though.
As I said we have been asked to do this at least twice and we have refused on both occasions.
That's partly a question of not wanting to add something that may never gain any traction and partly a question of whether we should be supporting what is essentially a proprietary project that uses a patented algorithm and relies on a proprietary database.
