I agree, one file for these should be enough. I did not quite follow you 
regarding access tags. They do not matter for polygons, do they? For 
points, they can matter with link-pois-to-ways, which implements access 
restrictions based on nearby nodes that carry access tags.

Could we have something similar to the #include and #undef in the C 
preprocessor? For #undef (or whatever it will be called), an example 
would be a style that is derived from the default style but removes the 
lines rules for power=line and man_made=*.

Last, given the current breakage in trunk (sorry, I failed to notice 
it), I guess that we should we have a separate branch for refactoring 
the default style and the substyle handling.

Best regards,
