+1 for merging locator branch back to trunk. I know it take more time to create a map, but it's actually the only way to make maps searchable for addresses on Nuvis. And it would be nice to search for housenumbers and zip codes ;) Yesterday I've noticed that there also subregions in the address-index (CN Europe-Map). Searching for a suburb leads to the city.

Well I still don't like the results, but if it's fully optional and the old behaviour still possible, then go for it. For me the city branch is much more important (and for what I can see correct).
Best improvement overall however would be true addresses with street number support. Everyone I spoke to about improvements to mkgmap on the State of the Map EU last few days, is waiting for this feature. If it were in mkgmap, I'm sure in say 3-4 months we will have the first big cities in Europe 80-90% housenumber complete (some are already at 30-40%). Also depending on how it's implemented, it would give certainity to mappers on how to map addresses (like is the current tagging really implementable)

Hi,
I think the locator branch is ready to be merged back to trunk. I will improve the help files so that it's easier to understand what need to be added to the style file and which parameters need to be added to use the new locator features.
Any objections?
