Usually the places without a housenumber here have some kind of

For example, an airport located in a road (there won't be 2 airports

Ok, if the address is essentially "The airport on X-street" or "The
government office on Y-street" then i think the type of feature is part
of the address and this needs to be indicated in tagging somehow.  And
And I don't think the fact that there is no house number needs to be
specifically indicated then.


Usually that 'uniquess' is given by the name.


The lack of a house number should be indicated so other mappers don't waste time looking for it.

The indication of the lack of a house number may then be used by renders to include the name as part of the address,

rather than duplicate the name entry as addr:name=.
