[OSM-talk] How to tag lanes, not ways, was: Deprecating the use of Tag:highway=stop in favour of Key:stop

That solution would fail to allow us to attach nodes to individual lanes.

This is just another hack to try and accomodate the existing framework
and I think it's a bad idea to try and cram multiple values into a
single keypair.

We need a proper solution to do this properly, at some point OSM is
going to need to move to more micro mapping, lanes isn't really a
micro mapping issue, it's a subset of a way issue and we should treat
it as such.
