I do try to do that every time. It is however a bit confusing that pressing 'b' in os locator background view with the 'simple' panel displayed in Potlatch appears to achieve nothing (even though it works behind the scene). It is also a bit dangerous that it is easy to change the 'ref' field for a road to 'b' if one pressed return on the name field for a more major road (which works fine for residential roads). It is also odd that pressing return a few times to get away from text boxes on the Potlatch interface for primary and trunk roads seems to freeze at the 'lanes' text field so it is also easy to change the lanes count to 'b'! Finally, it is odd that 'b' doesn't work when more that one road segment is selected in Potlach, We will do a trac ticket or two for Potlatch as appropriate.
