Some maps definitely will try and do sensible things with bridge:name 
etc. - see 
https://github.com/SomeoneElseOSM/SomeoneElse-style/blob/master/style.lua#L3519 
which results in 
https://map.atownsend.org.uk/maps/map/map.html#zoom=19&lat=54.051964&lon=-1.177194 
for example.  I'm sure that isn't the only example.  I'm sure that OSM 
Carto will catch up with them at some point.

Best Regards,

Andy
