This came up in discussions at the Edinburgh pub Meetup last night, and those there (quite a few of the prominent mappers in Scotland) agreed that eg U1234 should be on either admin_ref or official_ref (whichever was most popular) And not on the main ref tag.
Also perhaps a case for not rendering references on residential roads? But the issue with routing engines directing onto unsigned road references meant we felt it was more than just a rendering issue.
