[talk-au] Suburbs: Nodes, Areas, or both?

Hey all,

I would appreciate the thoughts of the community with regards to suburb 
representations.

In a recent change set 
(https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/113355648) a node was 
introduced for Gruyere. Gruyere is on the urban boundary, but is 
technically in Metropolitan Melbourne. As such, it straddles the border 
between what could be considered a bona fide suburb, and an independent 
town.

Mick has correctly pointed out that many of the other localities in the 
area are represented by both an area and a node.

Is this the way all suburbs should be represented? Or is it an 
urban/rural distinction?
