[HOT] what to do by clouds

[Jaakko Helleranta.com]

In these "the road seems to go through this area that is cloudy" I've
mapped the estimated bits of roads many times with highway=road (that is
meant for roads, tracks, paths that you don't know the classification of).
.. It highlights the road even better than just a FIXME tag (albeit has the
challenge that some data users omit it) -- and many times you can't be sure
of the classification under the whole cloudy part which makes it the
correct tag to use.
FIXME tag is always good in any case.

Cheers,
-Jaakko
