I noticed the 4000+ type=bridge, but many of those are relations that try & tie the bridge going over with the way going under.

Which isn't the same objective as the first example I provided. From memory it was to allow routers to check for low bridges etc. AsI remember it, it was discredited by unsure why.


I think with the current rendering in OSM carto of the outline
  (man_made=bridge) most mapper will stop with the outline. One
  main problem (bridge name is not highway name) is elegantly
  solved with the outline.

bridge:name=* can be used. It sits happily alongside name=*

I am not sure which questions are not answered by finding all ways
  inside the outline with the same layer.

Agreed

Cheers
