We discussed adding something about these at a recent call. Jonathan Rees points out interesting cases for zip codes.

by the way, regarding addresses and GEO, what did you end up doing about FPO AE zip codes?

e.g. note lat/long and map in the following: http://www.zip-codes.com/zip-code/09645/zip-code-09645.asp

The military post offices should be put in GAZ and we could refer to them that way.

Since zip codes are parts of addresses, any problem with military zip codes also infects military addresses. Hard to give lat/long to an aircraft carrier.
