<div>network tag in highway relations for highway shields, operator tags for banks, petrol stations, bus stops, etc. I think all the necessary information already is available with network and operator. The next step will be to make a table of networks and operators and their respective shields and icons. When that is in place, make the actual rendering rules to Mapnik/Osmarender/Kosmos/<insert favorite renderer here></div>
