Hi! First of all, thank you very much for the great OsmAnd -- I'm using it almost daily. Especially for travelling, it is an invaluable tool for me since 2012!
As a user and mapper, I'm quite interested in hiking trails. It is great that OsmAnd has an option to highlight the SAC scale of paths. However, even with this option enabled, sac_scale=hiking paths are shown the same as paths without a SAC scale. I think this has two disadvantages: 1) Proper knowledge about the SAC scale can be very important, even literally life saving. Unfortunately I often come across paths without a sac_scale tag that are T2/3 or even T4+. I think it should be immediately visible (at least if the SAC scale rendering is turned on) if a path is indeed T1 or just missing a SAC scale and can thus be everything. (Of course, noone should blindly rely on OSM data for planning a mountain trip. But it can definitely be an important factor as well.) 2) The rendering between purple/blue paths with SAC scale of T2 or higher is very different from the rendering of an ordinary path or a T1 path -- at least for me, this even means that on the first look, I see mostly the T2+ paths and overlook the T1 ones. What do you think about adding special rendering also for T1 paths (sac_scale=hiking) if the SAC scale option is turned on? It could be dark yellow / brown, for instance.
