I'm interested in building an alternative backend service for use by
the android.location.Geocoder class.  I'd like to support doing some
basic offline geocoding (probably using OpenStreetMap data) when the
network is not available, but fall back to the default implementation
otherwise.

I found that there have been a couple of other posts to the list with
similar questions, but no definitive response [1][2].

Is it possible to write an alternative backend service?  Is there any
documentation describing what is necessary to do so?
