Is there somewhere I can request that similar is done for ref where
it won't fit next to the way? The A120 into Harwich is broken up by
quite a few closely spaced roundabouts and bridges.

Having said that it does look like it tries to use different font
sizes, and things do look OK at zoom levels 16 and 17. So perhaps it
is just at zoom levels 12 to 15 that issues might arise?
