I've noticed that there's a GNIS import going on in the USA recently, and
one of the types of POIs being imported are islands, which are tagged
place=island. Of course, the GNIS database contains some very tiny islands,
but Mapnik renders place=island up to z10. For example:

I went to look at an area I edited last week in the Mapnik rendering, and
noticed it looked wrong. I thought maybe my edits hadn't been picked up

The easy fix is to edit the way with Potlatch, make some sort of
