Do you think it's such a bad thing? No, treating a ford in the same was as a bridge does seem like a good thing providing it is not done before renderers and routers have caught up.
Tagging ford=yes was not mentioned in the wiki page however. I do feel that small groups holding private discussions on the wiki, and then making decisions and changes based on the views of such a small group, like some sort of QANGO is not good. Such discussions should be public on the mailing lists.
