11975	[Patch] Support Extended Overpass Turbo Queries	naoliv	simon04	"Building this query `aeroway=* in ""são paulo, brazil""` we have:

{{{
[timeout:25];
// fetch area “são paulo, brazil” to search in
{{geocodeArea:são paulo, brazil}}->.searchArea;
// gather results
(
  // query part for: “aeroway=*”
  node[""aeroway""](area.searchArea);
  way[""aeroway""](area.searchArea);
  relation[""aeroway""](area.searchArea);
);
// print results
out meta;
>;
out meta;
}}}

Note that we are using a `geocodeArea` area here.
But JOSM still uses a bbox when querying the API server:
