[OSM-talk] osmarender and mappaint styles

If you're using the latest version of JOSM and the latest mappaint plugin, it 
shouldn't do this. It shows just the bounds of the polygon, for this reason.

However, I agree it would be ideal if areas were shown as filled polygons and 
drawn first. This is something I'm intending to work on.
