I've been "tagging the sign" from survey photos, with address nodes to which I add the tag pseudo=yes. When you get info for adjoining intersections, they could be used to construct a true picture of the range of possible addresses. This area shows the results of a survey of both pseudo-addresses (from street signs) and actual ones (from mailboxes): http://osm.org/go/TaBihQXG4- (Yes, I need to discuss/document this.
