Regarding rendering, two weeks ago, a change was made to the Mapnik
rendering:

http://trac.openstreetmap.org/changeset/21091

Before the change, parking areas tagged as access=private,
access=permissive, and access=unknown only had a yellow polygon fill, and
access=public and those without any access tags had a "P" symbol.

Now, there is a new, somewhat faded "P" symbol that is used for non-public
parking. (both non-public parking areas/lots and points/nodes)

I dislike this change, and wonder what the reasoning is behind the change.
