<p>or ref:issuer as a more generic way of indicating the scope/domain of the value of ref?</p>
<p>Whatever we end up with, I would also like to see a way of tagging both the signed, official-looking ref *and* the actual administrative ref. One example of where the two values diverge is where a road has been downgraded in the signage but administratively still has the old classification. Another example is slip roads and connector roads which administratively belong to one road but bear the signage of another road.</p>
<p>So not just official_ref *instead of* ref, but sometimes *as well as*?</p>

Why not
ref:highway_authority
To keep the tags just a little bit organized?
