Am I missing something here, or is the editing interface now CREATING a new 
problem? If something does not have a name why would you ADD a name=xx tag. No 
name tag = no name. I doubt that every trackway has a name so why ADD 
thousands of noname=yes when simply not providing a name tag does the same thing.
