if you just want to complete addr:*-tag, it's good to use addr:* prefix. I don't understand. Where should I use the addr:* prefix?
addr-tags are used to display the address of an object. If you just want to complete existing objects with tags from relations, then addr:* should be ok. But If you want to create new objects e.g. all streets with addr-tags, this would make it impossible to keep them separate from the original objects with addresses.
I think using only existing objects, wont be useful, because there isn't a high density of address-objects to have enough points for linking with streets.
So it would be better to use relations to put tags to all streets in a form like mkgmap:city= mkgmap:district= mkgmap:state= mkgmap:country=
Also it would be useful to set an global default for each of these tags in mkgmap-call, because it could be possible, that there isn't any country relation in an extract.

That's a good reason to use a separate tagging scheme for the location completion information. I'l put it on my todo list. Thanks! WanMil
