I had proposed to use the regular osmarender stylsheet for t at h exactly
because they are not really kept in sync, but got no overly enthusiastic
reaction. 80n wanted to restructure the z17 stylesheet, so I did not
work to much on that lately.

If really wanted I could port over some of the regular osmarender
features for high zoom level in t at h during the next couple of days/weeks
as I would also like to see some more of the common features on the maps.
