Navigate to place point by address
As we've added more parking lot roads to shopping centers wazers have become accustomed to being directed to a specific store when they search by name. As a result, they are reporting navigation errors when navigating by address results in a stop point on the road in front of the stopping center. This is particularly bad when the route has to circle around the shopping center to reach the house number.
To work around this, we've taken to adding both a PP and a RPP when a store in a shopping center has a unique address.
It would be great if we could check a box when editing a PP to indicate that waze should enable navigation by both name and address.

I wholeheartedly endorse this idea. Right now if we want to be sure routing-by-address works in shopping centers we have to add a completely separate Residential Point Place (RPP) with exactly the same information that's in the standard Point Place for the store and located in the same spot. This is pure duplicated effort, and a huge amount of extra work when multiplied by all the stores in a complex. Many editors are not drawn to put in the effort, and routing by address fails. All it would take is a simple "Allow routing by address" checkbox. Please implement this!
