When I lived in an apartment building our SSID was "internet-304". 304 being my apartment number.
No one ever showed up at my door or anything, but it was there. Seems like the most obvious and succinct way to tie the access point to a physical location, which seems the most obvious way to open communications.

Well yes, if you publish your phone number then people will be able to see it.
You're right about the flat number / street number situation though. It might be good to add that to the SSID as well.
Loud music seems like a perfect use case for the information.

Yes, I've had my phone number as SSID for the past three years and have yet to have anyone call it.
I think it'll need to hit a critical mass before it's useful. People don't expect SSID's to have useful information so they don't look for it there.
