As much as I hate checking in binary files, I wonder if it would be
useful for there to be a standard/default .typ file that makes osm maps
a bit more useful, perhaps just showing the different road types
differently (esp track vs service vs trail and maybe even unpaved, plus
cycleway), and perhaps has a few more POI icons, and for this to be in
the sources along with a description of what it is.  When there's
adequate free software for .typ files in the glorious future, this could
be swapped out for the source description.  I have been avoiding .typ
files due to the non-free tools issue, but am wondering if that's
rational.
