All 'tagging' is doing is effectively naming the database field in which
the attribute is being placed. Road numbers all belong in the road number
field irrespective of what the number is. If map renderers don't want to
use C and U numbered roads, that is up to them to ignore and not for
mappers to place in a different field in the database.

Doesn't that seem a more logical approach to the issue ?
