No. The right solution is to stop having "a map". We need to bring
opencyclemap, openrailwaymap, openpistemap, and opencanalmap back into
the fold, and offer all of them as "OpenStreetMaps, pick one." That
way, we directly attack the misconception that OpenStreetMap is a map
(yes, yes, I know, we're rather misnamed -- OpenGeodata is probably a
better name.)
