<div>I'm with John on this one - especially for the case of Australia. Maybe we need a special renderer for Australia. Just recently I managed to get some new mappers interested in mapping in rural NSW.</div>

<div>They have started on the Wyndham area (which was just about completely unmapped, and they are having the same problem as John. I,E when they want to see Wyndham and it's neighbouurs (Candelo and Cathcart) at the same time on a map, OpenStreetMap shows almost nothing since they are too far apart.</div>

<div>We really need a smart renderer that determines (for each tile in each zoom level) what are the most significant objects/ways in that tile/zoom and makes sure that they are rendered (even if they happen to be hundred mile long dirt tracks). Also if the major places in the tile are only localities,hamlets or villages then they should be rendered. That way we would not be tempted to elevate a village to a town just to make the map usable.</div>
