Add via (nearby) to intermediate waypoints #13491

Description

Here's the route

Whenever I try to route on longer distance I add intermediate points. But the problem is that it routes through exact point and not nearby that point. Look at the screenshots: I add Olkusz as intermediate and it tells me to turn right in that city instead of going straight (through 94). It's the case with Graphhopper, Google Maps and OsmAnd. e6987fce-f5b6-4d08-bdb8-facb0d3575ad

Describe the solution you'd like

I think that there should be added popup when clicking "Wybierz Olkusz" (Choose Olkusz) with 2 options "Via Nearby" and "Via Point". It's the case with polish AutoMapa for Windows. 1df6d10e-8edb-4d08-bf07-abff30300649

Describe alternatives you've considered

This is how it looks in Automapa for Android https://youtu.be/T4BGcyVC0GE?t=13 "Przez okolicÄ™" (Via Nearby)

That would indeed be an interesting feature!

Considering OsmAnd has problems calculating routes > 200 km. Manually adding via points in such a way that unnecessary detours are avoided is really tedious. Adding "near by" points would resolve this shortcoming.

That's quite interesting actually
