I have no idea how this should be implemented, but I think each country's "standard" address formatting method should be taken into account somehow.
libpostal (used by geocoder-nlp in OSM Scout Server) is expected to parse addresses in your natural way (Street name, civic number, city). The second option is a workaround.

Please add an issue at for your search troubles when using OSM Scout Server at https://github.com/rinigus/geocoder-nlp/issues . When filing an issue, please provide example search string, screenshot from OSM Scout Server on how it parsed it (switch on full logging for that in Settings), and expected result.

I'll be working on updating libpostal in near future and then I can look into it.


PS: @pichlo's analysis does warrant longer reply, at least I would like to outline my POV on the issues. it would just take some time to get to it.
