Hi Daniel,

Interesting text. Few comments:
* I've updated the image. The tags on ways 3 and 5 are not needed,  
since those are the outer ways of multipolygons. I also removed the  
JPEG artefacts (saved as PNG, etc.) and enhanced the color for wooded  
areas. By the way, shouldn't there be a node at the intersection of  
ways 1 and 3?
* I think it is possible to do imports in the fully integrated model  
as well. It isn't necessary to import everything at once, but it could  
be done in multiple iterations.

Regards,

Frank
