what would be a rule to get back the --location-autofill=1 behavior (or 
better, but no bounds analysis at all, I want ise tags plus whatever 
tags to be analysed, plus if that fails to search for nearest city/region)?

Also for rules on Polygons, I assume they are only used IF the polygon 
is converted to a POI??? I need no address information for any kind of 
end result area/polygon (but I do want address information for any POI 
that is created by the area-pois option).....
It's good that It's inside the style-file now though (just don't know 
how to use it best without using any of the bounds file that for me does 
not improve the address search)

(BTW I think dropping location-autofill=0,1,2 was never announced on the 
list either explicitely
