<p><font size="-1">I know the opinions about the need to create
multipolygons are as diverse as there are political opinions. It
was just one example where these features cause issues. My main
question is simply if there are any plans or ideas by the
British community of how to deal with these features, or if there
is any consensus whether they are desired or not. If not, would
the community oppose someone else removing them?<br>

That' a problem with the renderers. Â Multipolygons are difficult
for <br>
both (human) editors and (machine) renderers, so only be used
where <br>
strictly necessary.
