The use of covering areas is essential, but
http://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=18/52.09356/-1.94719 is now becoming
even more unusable unless one modifies the contrast on the monitor. And
those PIGGING dots pushing the text onto the adjacent buildings are
another areas that needs properly fixing! What works well for one
country and style of mapping simply fails in many others.
