Mario Batschke suggested in a private mail to use highway=* & bridge=yes {set mkgmap:numbers=false} in the finalize section for lines so that addresses are not assigned to bridges.

I think this is a good idea.

He also suggested to exclude tunnels, but I see quite a lot cases where this doesn't improve the address search, e.g. for shops in underground stations.

I don't see why an address shouldn't be valid just because it's on a road that happens to be a bridge. It would be good to get pointers to the situations where people think this proposed rule makes sense, and we can then see if we think there are tagging errors.
