[Talk-GB] Implicit speed limits: What to tag in built-up areas?

[SK53]

In fairness to Tobias:

   - StreetComplete is a well-used app (over 10k installs according to
   Google Play), representing 2% of all changesets last year.
   - It offers a way for people who don't want to engage with the full
   complexity of learning an editor (as represented by the person who raised
   an issue against the app on github).
   - He has engaged very thoroughly with the OSM GB/UK community (as in
   this case & in the past on national speed limits).
   - I think the thread was started because he wants to improve the app &
   user experience, and therefore wants more info from us.
   - The 'quests'
   <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/StreetComplete/Quests> seem to be
   chosen carefully to select topics where existing data is readily enhanced.
