Until Mapnik starts rendering shields, which Mapquest showed us is
possible (and probably not rendering state route shields except as
ovals/rounded rectangles, but we'll see). It's usually a good idea to
tag correctly for the renderer (as opposed to tagging equally
correctly but not in a way the renderer supports).
