That's an odd use of the word 'lean-to'. Yes, a lean-to is a
In the old days when the term was first brought into use in the Adirondack

I'm new on this mailing list, but I spend a few months already on the

I see the problem, it's tricky. Maybe we've hit the boundaries of what it
is possible to achieve with nodes, ways and relations. Maybe we should ask
the developers to add a new type of object that would be more suitable for
this situation. It would need to be diffuse, span over several layers and
Sounds about right, but add layer=* tags where appropriate. Clouds go above
the land, so we have to make sure they render above everything (except
certain bridges and buildings). Might as well add layer=5 to all of them
for good measure.
