Maybe do not add nodes? Or limit these nodes to cases with random numbering?

I guess GPS finds position of an address as an interpolation between 
numbers assigned to 2 consecutive nodes. In many cases you can drop 
intermediate points, without worsen the functionality.

Wouldn't be easer to move creation of overlays to this stage of 
algorithm? Or mark some object for creating overlays earlier and do it 
now? Just a thought, I don't know these algorithms.
