I recently discovered that it is possible to "search" for Intersections in the Search.
But sofar it only worked for very few street, where the intersections were already displayed as an option when selecting the street.

However I was not able to find a syntax, that allowed me to find an arbitrary intersection reliably.

Anybody know of the syntax for the feature?

I didn't know this feature, thanks for bringing it up!

What works for me is Search-> name1 name2

It brings all occurences of both names but with the ones containing both pushed up, which mainly are intersections.
It works also with part of the name of the streets as far as the parts are full words.
For example you could search, in the map of France: liberte fraternite
and you will be presented with crossings between Rue/Place/Impasse/anything de la Liberté and anything de la Fraternité
If instead you tipe liber frater, then the Liberté and Fraternité words are not in the results.
