Can you elaborate on how having "inner" and "outer" roles helps one in
building a valid geometry?
Reason I'm asking is that in all the code where *I* generate geometries
from multipolygon relations, I explicitly ignore the role because using
the role would actually lead to more, not less, invalid multipolygons.
