Thats the point - the node construct is IMHO unsupported in all Navi/Routers.

So i'd suggest to deprecate it and replace it with a highway=* +
junction=roundabout and if its a "mini roundebout" physically
you can driver over it (Thats IMHO the only difference) you add
an area=yes to the circular road.

It add:

- Knowledge over the physical dimensions (a node has a dimension of 0)
- Removes a special case everyone processing OSM data for routing chokes at.
