I dont think its a good idea for a waterway and highway to intersect on the same layer. You dont need a bridge/tunnel to use a layer tag, landuse comes to mind which isnt that far removed from a river area. Another thought, is how will a ford be rendered if it has a layer below a waterway with a higher/lower layer? I think layer tag should be used, but other than layer=-1, I cant think what else.
