                    <div>I largely agree.  I wouldn't mind
                      country-specific values similar to the advantage

                      let the wiki work out what counts as largely
                      equivalent in character for the renderers to work

              <div>So how do you go about setting country-specific
                values?</div>
              <div><br>
              </div>
              <div>In Australia, it's not uncommon for a Primary (&
                in some cases, Trunk!) road to be a single lane dirt
                road!, & it would be nice to be able to show them
                with the importance that they are to local residents of
                that area.  </div>
              <div><br>
              </div>
              <div>Is it simply a matter of specifying road types under
                the "Australia" page & hoping that people read them?</div>
              <div><br>
