One case that isn't handled cleanly today is where a multiuse trail is
blazed with a specific color. The renderer could show this in a generic
manner (path / foot/ cycle). Or a renderer could use a color suggestion so
that the rendered color matches the trail blaze. So I'm adding a direct
rendering suggestion to the OSM data, but it's based on local observation.
Today, I create a relation
type=route
color=#xxxxx
route=foot
- I see variations on color / colour
route=foot doesn't fit multiuse, so I add bicycle=yes to the relation.
