After #509, the search tool on the website uses nominatim to get a list of real object for a lat/lon search term. Which makes sense. But, under some circumstances the results are too generic:
search for a set of coordinates, e.g. 52.2575, 4.786667
get "European Union" as the result instead of a list of features that are actually at the given location
I guess it would be safe to assume that a user doesn't want to search learge scale features if entering coordinates. I mean, one can't get any more specific than using coordinates, can one?
Another case is when there are no features at/around the searched coordinates the results may lie far from the actually searched coordinates.
start with a zoomed in map
search for 77.0, 100.0
the only search result is at 72.56819, 94.76948 which is about 500km away.
