Despite of some "major maps" (e.g. open cycle map) interpreting "state=proposed" correctly, this tagging approach is generally flawed. Have a look in the wiki at highway=proposed and highway=construction, which are combined with construction/proposed=primary/secondary/etc. You can also find relevant discussions in the various mailing list archives (also for abandoned, disused and ruins). This second approach is much more solid as it doesn't put the mapmakers at risk to misinterpret the object (if it doesn't check for *=proposed it won't render anything, while in the first case if you don't look at the state tag you will render the object as active which it isn't). IMHO we should follow a similar approach for routes (route=proposed, proposed=*). cheers, Martin
