I think we're talking about stuff that OSM has no place for (yet, 
perhaps). For example an article illustrating some historic displacement 
of people from one region to others; I don't think anyone is saying that 
those trans-European arrows we known from history class should be 
modeled as relations in OSM, to be rendered by the appropriate Mapnik 
rule ;-)
