Yeah - i know - call it "navigational_hint" or something.

I am open to anything which solves the issue. With more and better data
more of these problems crop up that we, be having only a very
rudimentary generalized approach to mapping pois/addresses to the road
network, make pretty broken assumptions.

So sooner than later we need a more fine-grained controlled approach to 
letting the navigation know where to get us to.

The issue is - do i replicate the POIs information or the Address to the
node on the road network. How do i tell the automatism to prefer the
node on the road network?

I am open to a solution.

In 2019 i had further examples e.g. for big malls which have multiple
parking lots we may have more than one relation - So you search for
e.g. "Frankfurt Airport" and a Menu pops up shows you 
"Parking lot A", "Parking lot B" as destinations for going to "Frankfurt
Airport". This is why i wanted a "name" in the relation.
