I like this proposal as it could also encompass regular seasonal closures.
 There are many roads through the mountains in Vermont that are generally
closed from Nov 1st through May 30th each year due to snow.  These could be
tagged as:

closed = Nov-May

or

closed = yearly
closure_dates = Nov-May

The hard part would be getting Mapnik to render this information.  It would
either have to be smart enough to change to the closed rendering during the
specified dates, or have a different rendering for roads that are closed
seasonally with the dates indicated after the name.
