There even seems to be a Swedish version, although whenever I've tried it over the past few days it times out. See https://openstreetmap.se/ In principle it would be possible to use that, or even your own private renderer, to develop a cartographic style that does what you want (provided the objects you are interested in, such as peninsulas, exist in the database). If you can achieve something there that the standard renderer does not offer, you could even submit your new features to the standard renderer. Some of your changes might conflict with other goals but, where there are no conflicts, submitting working code to do X has a far better chance of happening (and happening relatively quickly) than adding another wish to an already-long list. -- Paul
