[Openstreetmap-dev] CSV transport encoding scheme

[Thomas Walraet]

I think it's better to use tabulation instead of coma as separation 
character. So we can use coma in properties values without escaping, and 
coma can be use as separator for element list.

Next, it's a bad idea to have a variable number of arguments in the 
middle of a line (segments list for streets in your example). The parser 
don't have to guess when to change reading segment ids and start to read 
properties. We can keep the system for properties at the end of lines.
