For the second case you probably want to add 'Hallenbad' as a special phrase in https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Nominatim/Special_Phrases/DE. The search is rather "get me some swimming pool in Mombach" rather than "get...

We'd have to do compound decomposition here. It might be a possibility in the future, especially now that we have the possibility to implement language-specific tokenizers. But it's still a...

The import uses `getDocsWithHousenumber()` too. It is called in the import thread. See: https://github.com/komoot/photon/blob/719df8ce10ccb10c20165119a525042225b09b17/src/main/java/de/komoot/photon/nominatim/ImportThread.java#L34 Nominatim has a couple of 'dead' interpolations in its table.

Public transport data in OSM is tricky. I've largely ignored that so far in Nominatim apart from the simple name search that just works like others. The PT mapping schema...
