It seems there is not yet any solution for this. So how about the following:
<relation ...>
<tag k='group' v='archipelago' />
<tag k='name' v='A group of Islands' />
<tag k='is_in' v='<country>' />
<member type='node' ref='<id>' />
<member type='way' ref='<id>' />
...
</relation>
The immediately arising question is, is "group" enough, or would you also
think that an
<tag k='type' v='group' />
is required? I personally thing that is unnecessary redundancy, but then, who
knows. Maybe someone can point out why it is not.
For choosing 'archipelago' as value, maybe someone has a better alternative. I
am no native English speaker.
TIA
