Hello,

highway=trunk is very different between countries, in France it is used for
motorway-like roads (dual carriageway), so the same road is sometimes
highway=primary and sometimes highway=trunk (example with the N7 road :
http://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=13/46.6303/3.2700), whereas in England or
in Japan highway=trunk is used like a highway=super-primary tag even if the
road is a urban street or a classic road (example :
http://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=17/51.62060/-0.78353).

Should it be harmonized to the England standard ?
