I'm opposed; this seems like a duplication of effort for what route relations are currently for, and creates redundancy and overlap in scope with the service= and highway= tags. As such, this really sounds like a step in the wrong direction. Perhaps expanding the service= tags and getting the mapnik and osmarender we use on the slippymap to render these things instead of route tags on the underlying ways when the underlying way is a member of a route=road relation. The cyclemap is getting this right; but strangely, none of the other renderers. And it's not like it would be that hard to get that fixed; someone's already rendering road relations complete with correct highway badges already. http://weait.com/maps/?zoom=11&lat=43.14469&lon=-79.17383&layers=0B0
