Or maybe, the Hemnet evaluation *would *consider an area-object
natural=water + water=river (showing the real extension of the water
surface), instead of only the line object waterway=river.

In addition, the map would look a lot more natural with more than a
blueline with uniform width, as the waterway=river is rendered.

Like this:
