I would like to note that it's a rare example of complex tagging scheme 
being actively developed in parallel with special rendering layer and 
JOSM style template, which is kind of "agile" loopback approach. 
Initially it produces some more questions and problems, but it's better 
to catch them early on.

Currently only Poland, Germany and Ukraine are being rendered:

http://osmapa.pl/w/areade/
http://osmapa.pl/w/areaua/

JOSM style template is currently available from the standard templates 
library as "Area:highway tags for street&footway areas".
