Find Domain location slugs by place name

Domain.com.au suburbs, areas and regions for a place name, from the site's own search box, with the slug POST /v1/domain/search takes as location. A trailing state or postcode narrows the match (Surry Hills NSW); a bare postcode lists its suburbs. No match is free.
