[OSM-talk] Bridge Names

[Matt]

Hi All.

I understand that the current advice for naming bridges is just to use 
the name tag. Should there not be a 'Bridge Name' tag as many bridges do 
not have the same name as the way they carry? The current method seems 
not to allow, for example, both the name of the road and the name of the 
bridge to be entered. I feel that this leaves some ambiguity as to what 
the value for 'name' represents.

This has also been discussed at 
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Talk:Mapping/Features/Bridge 
Should this be a proposed feature and what is the next step in this process?
