[OSM-talk-nl] maping bus routes, was Re: junction= roundabaout

What already works is giving the stop members a role 'platform', instead of
'stop'. The tags on the stop nodes themselves cannot be converted to
public_transport=platform though, so you have to keep working with
highway=bus_stop and railway=tram_stop. Or use both, but that seems like a
waste of space to me.

The ways in the relation don't need a role. It's just a waste of time to
add them and keep them correct. If there is one long line from the first
stop to the terminus, it's  easy to see whether it's continuous in JOSM's
relation editor, with or without roles.

The stops get added, preferably in order, as the last relation members.

Roundabouts sort of also work in this continuity (they get a special
symbol), but I also prefer to split them, when routes go over them (even
when I'm in Belgium, not Holland). The result is cleaner and completely
unambiguous.
