Thank you for your explanation. Would it be then possible to ask
questions like: "Is the point at (x,y) inside any polygon, which
has tag 'z'?" Or even something like a "JOIN" of the point itself with
the polygon: "Give me all points in bbox (a,b,c,d) and the value of
'zone:xxx' of an encompassing polygon, if they lie in some"?

Sorry for many questions, but I do not want to promote an idea without
knowing that it's feasible...

Thanks in advance,
Radek Černoch
