Having thought more about this, my proposal has a problem: There is no way 
to show the difference between a path leading to the bottom of a route and 
the path leading to the top of the route.  I'm starting to think that for 
routes which do have a path to the top we need to have a node for both the 
top and bottom with a way between them, even though a lot of the time 
these nodes will be practically on top of each other...
