[talk-au] Suburb boundaries

Hi.

Does anyone have any thoughts on how to mark suburb boundaries (in areas
that have them)?

The closest thing I can find is boundary=administrative at
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:boundary but I haven't seen this used
anywhere. London uses this to mark boroughs (equivalent to council areas)
with left:district=name and right:district=name to indicate the names on
either side of the way.

The above page seems to indicate that admin_level=10 shows a suburb border
in Australia. Has anyone used this tag? How do you show the suburb names?
Are there any examples of how this renders?
