I've tried to test with non-ascii characters, but it appeared that it doesn't
work for me at all.

Tried run with --location-autofill=3:

Locator City   Map contains 0 entries
Locator Places Map contains 9216 entries
Locator City   Map contains 0 entries after resolver run 1 Still unresolved 9216
Locator City   Map contains 0 entries after resolver run 2 Still unresolved 9216

After uploading the map to a Garmin 60Csx, "Addresses" option does not appear
in the "Find" menu. So, the map behaves the same way as any other map without
MDR file.

AFAIU, the is_in tag is used for search index. My OSM dump (part of Russia) has
several regions, where is_in tag is put on many streets.
