As I commented in the past, this option is still necessary for countries 
where streets/roads are named with the type of way before the name, that 
is "street foo" instead of "foo street" as in English. I can think at 
least in Spanish, Portuguese, French and Italian speaking countries to 
work this way (probably most latin languages), so until a predictive 
search method is implemented I vote for keeping this option alive.

If the above options have to be set in the style, would that mean a 
different style is necessary for each country? Could we use something 
like current inc/address file to define these options?
