Is it possible for Mapnik and/or Osmarender (T at H) to render the names of
adjacent areas alongside boundaries?
e.g. for
boundary=administrative
left:county=Cambridgeshire
right:county=Suffolk
instead of just a line, we'd see (at intervals)
Cambridgeshire
----+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+------->
Suffolk
I guess it doesn't matter much what it says after the left: and right:
(which must be easier to deal with in Mapnik, I'd have thought), though
if we (very reasonably) had on a single boundary
boundary=administrative
left:county=Cambridgeshire
right:county=Suffolk
left:district=South Cambridgeshire
right:district:Forest Heath
some concatenation would be required, e.g.
Cambridgeshire / South Cambridgeshire
----+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+------->
Suffolk / Forest Heath
