I agree with him here though - I think it is a bad idea with the current 
state of the tools, because I think the data will become inaccurate as 
people edit the ways.  (I also still dislike the idea of putting lots of 
disjointed bits of a road in a relation because I fundamentally don't see 
why you wouldn't want to treat them as independent roads).
