Meant to include this in my other post, but...I'm noticing that
several cities in the UK (Bristol, Bath and Chester are good
examples) don't seem to tag the city centre area with an
appropriate landuse tag (presumably retail, commercial or
residential).</div>

This is something I've missed over the years... but what is the
common practice for tagging city centre areas? Presumably the
above three landuses are not used because city centres are
typically a mixrure of all three.</div>

What I'm trying to achieve is a 'built-up-area' rendering which
covers the whole of the built up area of a town or city. Not
looking for administrative boundaries - but the actual
physically built-up area.<br>
