if I may just comment on the relation: I would also use "stop"

apart. (Unless one stop in the loop is formally designated as the
terminus
where services routinely end.)
You have to use forward_stop and backward_stop if you combine the two
directions in one relation, otherwise the same-named stop in the two
directions don't get combined on the line diagram.
You're probably right (though I haven't tried plotting spoon lines yet),
when the same stop is served twice, the tool needs that information.
"stop" works well for single-direction relations. Maybe it would be best
to use "forward_stop" and "backward_stop" for the stops which are served
in both directions and "stop" for the stops in the loop.

I did not play around with actual renderers, but in theory the renderer should be able to get the diagram out of the order of the stops, regardless of the role. If one stop is twice in the route relation it should be obvious that it has to be some kind of loop. So in theory forward_stop and backward_stop can be replaced by the role stop.

Or did I miss something?
