[TYPO3-ect] FE users to addresses relations

it's not 100% the same, but I have also thought about having an n:n 
relationship between parties (e.g. persons) and addresses. A real 
use-case for that might be a whole family living at the same house. You 
would store a party-record for each member of the family, but only one 
address-record, with a relationship to each party. So when the family 
moves to a new house, all you need to do is update the address-record. 
This might also be handy for physical mailings etc.

Assigning an address to multiple parties is likely only going to happen 
from the backend (after all, you need to be able to search all 
addresses, which might not be a good idea for a frontend-user to allow). 
But still, I think the model should support that.

Greetings,
Dave.
