Why did I not think of that? (slaps head). In fact, I could put them in as layer=5 which will put them on top of virtually any other conceivable feature (like, a river underneath a three-layer highway intersection...) In fact, I have a strange idea that osmarender may in fact put them on a virtual layer 5, though I could be *completely* hallucinating that...
