Description
So you can follow street signs if the road structure is too complex to be shown correctly by navit(several lanes etc).
When you are closer than 10 - 20 kilometers to the aimed town, the next bigger one on your route should be displayed.
Any thoughts?
Could this feature be realised?

I agree with Jandegr.
The experimental code for this feature can be tested from this repository until it makes its way into SVN : https://github.com/mvglasow/navit/tree/highfive

Just picking the next city on the route may be difficult and may not always coincide with what is in road signs.
We might want to take a look at: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:destination and http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Relation:destination_sign
These were designed specifically for such purposes - to allow navigation software to display the destination reported on road signs.
A possible approach might be:
