It would be nice if Nominatim was able to match partial housenumber i.e.

Searching for "sankt petri kyrkogata 3a, lund" or "3a, sankt petri kyrkogata, lund" returns, as expected, http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/details.php?place_id=17837153

However, searching for "sankt petri kyrkogata 3, lund" only finds the street, not any address nodes. The preferred behaviour would be to return all house numbers matching "3" excluding alphabetic suffixes i.e.

http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/details.php?place_id=17837153
http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/details.php?place_id=17983236
http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/details.php?place_id=17528428

and perhaps give the average of the positions of those nodes as a result too.
