I agree. I have looked at some examples, and while some are just caused 
by the nature of our (armchair) mapping (non-existing roadnames in 
Brazil) and some seem to be correct (the street-like boundaries on a 
mountain on Java), some really need discussing and fixing, like the 
crossing in (Leipzig)-Schönau, which has been tidied up, but is still 
broken IMHO (mapping every single lane is not a good idea IMHO), and 
like the "3% of villages in Spain" example, which looks like an 
automated import gone wrong.

Maarten
