Hey Peter,
I'd like to first say I didn't really know what your account was doing when
I saw those stop_lines, but I certainly see some value in them now. I hope
your company stays engaged and keeps contributing to OpenStreetMap!
I think there is more value in having the ways re-tagged than having them
deleted. I think one of the important things is that the road_marking ways
should be joined to any relevant intersecting ways (probably highways) with
a node (utilsplugin2 should help).
