you suppose, its to long for the map-layout?
An 'extra' relation just for denote? I don't think that.

see here:
<http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Tag:boundary%3Dprotected_area#some_examples>
(the first link is wrong ...). the second a relationbased mix of 
different status an areas.

name:uk="one name that are made up of several other nature reserves"
and
name:"shorter name"

than you find in the search also the strings from the long (usually on 
the map unseen) name
and on the map just the short name is shown.
( if you skipp even the short name, because its still perturbing, you 
just see the border (with leisure=nature_reserve) )

yes.
I would map ("exact" ;) ) approximations - with a tag note="open for 
harmonization" (or similar-sounding)
