This is incorrect. Both maintainers have interest in adding functionality for propagating information from relations to ways - as opposed to from ways to relations, which is already supported. Neither of us have the free time to code it. If someone wanted to take this on, we'd help with the related issues like Lua API changes.

Other people (at least me) have also looked at doing it, but it's not straightforward.

I looked at it a while back to try and solve one of the issues that got merged into https://github.com/openstreetmap/osm2pgsql/issues/230 , but didn't get anywhere.  If part of https://github.com/openstreetmap/osm2pgsql/issues/901 was to improve the documentation in the code about how what's in the code actually worked (even if it didn't add much extra functionality) it'd be a great step forward.

Best Regards,

Andy
