As said before, at least one of the main editors (Potlatch) will destroy order 
and any duplicate members in the relation if you edit it (by e.g. splitting a 
way which is a member of that relation), and therefore we still can't rely on 
it. If we could, there wouldn't be a problem and we could just use one 
relation and just add all ways in order.
