One should hope the software can figure that out based on the overall
orientation of the relation.  I'm in the forward/backward crowd myself,
as it works well for routes that are only sometimes divided.  For routes
that are always divided, rather than making it more difficult for the
tools to work with, a super relation containing relations for each
direction works well.
