+1, the more you zoom in, the more you wish there were highway areas.
Actually there is nothing preventing us from mapping them (the only
risk might be that someone deletes the highway-center line because he
thinks that it is superfluous like it sometimes happens with rivers
which also have a mapped riverbank).

cheers,
Martin
