Is it possible to get a special administrative level in geocoding
results? E.g. in Germany there is a location named "Trier", which is
part of a sub-administrative area called "Trier". Both queries "Trier,
Trier" and "Trier" return the locality, so I cannot get the lat/lon
(box) of the area. Is there a way to give the geocoder a hint - like
in an extended Google query?

Example links:
http://maps.google.com/maps/geo?q=trier&output=xml&key=abcdefg
http://maps.google.com/maps/geo?q=trier,+trier&output=xml&key=abcdefg

A geocoder query which returns the level I need could look like this:

http://maps.google.com/maps/geo?q=SubAdministrativeArea:Trier&output=xml&key=abcdefg

.. which does not work, of course.

Any hackers / Googlers who know more?
