[Routing] Using relations for interchange guidance/signposting

Hi,
I just thought it might make sense to have a relation that
describes what you have to do when changing from a certain way onto a
certain other way (specifically for motorway junctions). Something
like:
members:
from=way_a
onto=way_b
exit=node_c
tags:
type=road_change (or junction_guidance, or signposting, or....)
signpost=Bratislava (free text used in written directions - "follow
signs to ...")
This is just a raw idea and might need some more thinking but I firmly
believe that there are junctions of a complexity that makes it
impossible to auto-generate good drivers's instructions from the road
layout data alone.
It somewhat encapsulates existing/proposed motorway exit tagging I
guess.
Bye
Frederik
