Hi

I'm modifying a local copy of Osmarender to tweak the map output for my own 
requirements. I've discovered that the drawing order is determined by the 
<rule> order in the osm-map-features-z*.xml files. Moving the rule down in 
the file can make visible a feature that was hidden behind an area. However, 
most of these files (at higher zoom levels) have a section called layer = 5 
where the rules are all labelled as the highest layer. (-5 to 0 to +5)

Why have some rules got the layer tag and others none and why are all set to 
5?

Cheers

Stuart
