Given the level of detail that much mapping is at these days, using a
single way and "tracks=*" seems to me to be somewhat behind the rest
of the mapping --- are there reasons in favour of it, other than it
being quicker to do in initial mapping of an area?  I've sometimes
been tempted to convert them to separate ways when they run through
areas I've been mapping, but I've hesitated to do so in case there are
reasons that I haven't thought of, to leave them as they are.
