I can't get osmarender to work, so I havnt rendered it off yet, but i asumed
it would be a problem.
rather than have to make an object layered ontop, would it not be posible
that a polo shaped object (ish) could be made as a 'C' and then the two ends
of the 'C' somehow told to join and be invisible? This way the shape only
has 1 edge still.
Alternatively could there be some way of linking 2 edges? (inner and outer
edges) one being a secondry edge?. This shape would then be subtracted from
the larger shape.

Ben,
I have done it with water inside a park and it renders fine with osmarender.
It depends on the order that the rules are stacked up inside the
osm-map-features.xml file you use.
In my version of the file it says to draw the park before the water feature
(cos it comes first in file).
However for an island in a lake it wouldn't work as it would draw the lake
and then cover it with park.
Suggest you invent extra tags of "island" and "water-within-area" or
somesuch and add two new rules that stack them later in the xml sequence so
that they are drawn after water features and parks respectively.
Any simpler solutions?
Cheers
STEVE

This topic reminded me. I have labeled ponds/water and woods. But what do
I do if there are islands in the water, or the woods are shaped in a polo
shape? I then need the island to be a negative area, where it
de-waters/woods it...
I havn't rendered the maps with them on yet
