Thinking just that, I removed the place=island tag from every piece of coastline and made a relation out of all the pieces of coastline: http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/536255 ... but the problem persists.

Not using some dirty hack. :-) The problem is everything except the coastlines update within minutes, so now people assume everything does and when it doesn't they complain on mailing lists or diary entries or Realistically it's no more of a hack than generating shape files to get around rendering problems with broken coast lines. ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

I can't see any obvious reason why the islands would be missing. The coastline generating utility really only cares about things tagged with natural=coastline so any other tags like place=island should have no effect on it.

Those without a favorite bit of unimproved coastline might take a look I suggest searching the db for waterway=coastline AND (note=*rough* OR fixme=*rough*) - for example coastlines of Indonesia and Vietnam are *really* rough!
