Currently the HTML Standard seems a bit US centric:
The autocomplete attribute supports the street-address type for an unstructured street address or address-line1, address-line2 and address-line3 for the respective lines.
In Germany and several other countries, websites typically ask for the street name and a house number. In Spain, websites ask for the floor number and door number (I am not a Spanish speaker, I have seen "Num.", "Piso", "Letra", "Esc." on simyo.es for example). Some Brazilian sites ask for a neighborhood (which we might express with an address-levelX but that might be a bit underspecified because I am not aware of a canonical mapping of entities in specific countries).
Should we start a discussion on defining more entities around addresses? I think that just by supporting a street-name, house-number and apartment-number, we could cover a lot of ground.
