One of the first things I proposed when I joined OSM nearly two years 
ago was this:

   http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Proposed_features/Towards

but I never pursued it. Perhaps I should resurrect it again now so that

Indeed, all that needs to happen to make this work is for the renderers 
to implement it.
