global search area parameter
It would be nice to have a feature similar to global bounding box [bbox:49.3711,8.625,49.4397,8.7334] for areas. That could be realised with [area:area(areaid)].
Example without that feature:
[timeout:25];
// in overpass turbo: {{geocodeArea:Heidelberg}}->.searchArea;
area(3600285864)->.searchArea;
node["natural"="tree"](area.searchArea);
out geom;
Possible example with that feature:
[timeout:25];
// in overpass turbo: [area:{{geocodeArea:Heidelberg}}];
[area:area(3600285864)];
node["natural"="tree"];
out geom;
For sure it would be most important for very large queries with many lines, that are not easily creatable with the query wizard.
