<br>
I'm new to this list so please bear with me.<br>
The relation editor currently only parses 'forward' and 'backward'<br>
roles when considering the visual representation in the rightmost<br>
column. In the United States, north/south and east/west are very<br>
common as member roles for road routes, because that is how they are<br>
officially signposted.<br>
<br>
There was some discussion in the original relation editor enhancement<br>
ticket: <a href="https://josm.openstreetmap.de/ticket/5109#comment:42" target="_blank">https://josm.openstreetmap.de/ticket/5109#comment:42</a> where<br>
Petr_Dlouhy dismisses support for these member roles.<br>
<br>
I want to reopen that discussion and see if there is support for<br>
treating north/south and east/west as first class citizens similar to<br>
forward/backward in the relation editor (and perhaps in other parts,<br>
perhaps the validator and way direction reversing code?).<br>
<br>
I am crossposting to talk-us because this discussion is going on there<br>
at the moment.<br>
<br>
I would be more than happy to put in some of the work required to<br>
implement this support.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Martijn<br>
