[Tagging] bridge:name and tunnel:name

[dktue]

I definitely agree: If the tunnel (or more often used: the bridge) is a 
separate object (e.g. man_made=bridge), then the tunnel's or bridge's 
name should go in the name-tag.

But my impression is that if it's the same object as the highway (or 
railway or waterway) itself then "tunnel:name" or "bridge:name" is 
definitely better.
