[openstreetmap-website] [enhancement] Trace description autosuggestion (#514)

[Alexander Kachkaev]

I don't actually think that detecting if a name is real or not is a big deal. There are just a few common standard naming patterns, everything else can be counted as a ‘real’ name. Going further, it can be a check against presence of certain keywords like ‘track’ ‘trace’, length of the name, presence of numbers in it etc. I believe that with even a few very basic regexps it would be possible to make the right decision in 95%+ cases.

Anyway, if a task on improving user experience and saving time to contributors every day seems a bit difficult at a first glance, this should not be the only reason to decline the enhancement suggestion at all. 

I also agree with @vincentdephily that GPS tracks require order in general, now this part of OSM is totally messed up.
