I've noticed the address view matches addr:street and addr:place to nearby nodes with same place name.
Could this also look for relations with this? Like if an address is inside an area with the name.
Typical case would be islands.
In Norway we got lots of them and addresses often use the island name when its fairly small and without any roads.

Example of island: https://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/9921671
There are several address nodes within the area.

It would also help looking for bay and lake names as that is also a common addressing method for places with no road.

Ideally the addr:street match should only be done on road names and not place nodes.
And the addr:place match range could probably be extended to 2km as some address nodes can be quite far away at times.
