The rendering of the riverbanks is because waterway has an Else filter in place and picks up waterway=riverbank. So although not explicitly filtered that is why it shows, and that is what would show if it WAS rendered explicitly, ie an outline with no fill. The actual problem is I think to do with area fills of river estuaries. If someone can un-muddy the water on this one (yo a pun) I am happy to render riverbanks if required. NB: natural=water may be deprecated, but it is used a fair bit - as far as I can tell without searching for numbers - and is in the render file.

Further, I just noticed that the areas I considered to be correctly rendered in fact had still "natural=water" set, which is now apparently deprecated -- the centre way locked to the coastline or not was maybe just coincidence. Are there plans to change the Mapnik rendering accordingly? Thanks!
