[QGIS-Developer] Nominatim request throttling

Hi List,
currently the built in Nominatim locator/geocoder forces a 1,000ms wait
in-between queries.
This was implemented to comply with the OSM Nominatim TOS because their
endpoint https://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/search was used originally.
Since
https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/pull/42011
we are using our own Nominatim endpoint ->
https://nominatim.qgis.org/search
Are we still bound to the OSM Nominatim TOS (e.g. the QGIS endpoint uses
in fact the OSM endpoint) or do we need technically such request
throttling also for our own endpoint?
If not, maybe we could reduce the delay in-between queries to improve
UX.
Cheers,
Björn
