That suggested restriction: not marking up a simple crossing way
with tactile_paving yes/no to indicate whether the common case for the UK,
that the sidewalk endpoints do or don't have that ribbed paving
- requiring micro-mapping at the level of marking up the nodes on
the ends instead of the way -
seems... overly prescriptive to me.
