I'm under the impression this discussion is leading to ever more complicated
ideas, due to the problem that the features we want to name on the map
are not really clearly defined areas.

Maybe we should try a completely different approach. We could draw
a way along the approximate center line of the feature and tag it
with name=*, topo_feature=mountain_range|ridge|valley|...
A renderer that wants to display the name should draw it along that
way with the length of the way giving a hint about the size of the
feature.
