The point I wanted to make is that when encoding riverbanks with a multipolygon relation in which the ways are parts of the riverbank such as http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/75367154 contradicts the definition of multipolygon relation http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Relation:multipolygon which says that member ways are closed.
I see that these ways have to be stitched toghether to form a propper closed polygon. Perhaps a new relation type would be better? Pedro.
