 Even though it is nice that oneway=yes or -1 is displayed via the style,
 it is not friendly at all (and therefore makes P2 for me unusable) that
 the direction otherwise by default is not shown (at least for the active
 line). In P1 the direction reverse arrow pointed the direction of every
 line, which was very good too (except for circles).

 There are plenty of things that are direction dependant (any multipolygon,
 rivers, skipistes, incline, forward/backward, left/right or any key that
 is only applicable to one side of a street (of which plenty exist), a
 myriad of restrictions, ......).

 One cannot expect users to change the style to show this, nor would it be
 practical (too much clutter), to display arrows for every way. Hence the
 direction reverse arrow has to indicate the direction of any line just as
 it did in P1, or better, if any line is selected there should be some sort
 of arrows to indicate which direction the line is facing (a circle is a
 closed line, so arrows too).
