For Mapnik it might be even more simple, but I'm not sure.
Currently Mapnik as far as I know draws the following (in order):
bridges:
1) bridge-casing
2) highway-casing (is that rendered on bridges currently?
3) bridge-fill
4) highway-fill
5) highway-label

we now propose to add the bridge-area. If bridge-fill is the same for the current rendering than for the bridge-areas we propose, this would lead to this valid rendering order (kept numbers for hopefully better readability):
0) bridge area casing
1) bridge-casing
1a) bridge-area-fill
2) highway-casing
3) bridge-fill
4) highway-fill
5) highway-label

If there's no bridge-area defined, the rendering results exactly the same as before (ignore 0 and 1a and it's the same as above). If there is a bridge-area, then with this rendering ruleset and given, that bridge-fill is not transparent
- any bridge-casing is covered and thus overwritten by the bridge-area-fill
- the highway is rendered above as if the bridge tag would have been ignored on it (sequence 2, 4, 5)

I even drew it:

So, a renderer could find out if a road that has the tag bridge=yes is connected to a way that has a tag building=bridge on both ends. If it is, it doesn't render the black lines on left and right of road. That's why I think it's better not to remove the tag bridge=yes from roads that have the bridge area around them.
