Hello Peter,
you have raised interesting question, so I'll try to address at least
some of the questions regarding editor support and describe it from my

Hi,
just a general note on this:
I don't see a problem of mandating name:xx even when only one language is used
for added clarity, and have a bot fix up existing ones. Does break backwards
compatibility though, so too late to fix at this point.

Maybe a better example is when two roads (numbers) run on the same

elsewhere.
There is support for this - that is JOSM + RelationToolbox plugin.
