That's right. Sorry if that was unclear. I tried to explain by saying
"perhaps we should tag the effect of the school zone (i.e. a maxspeed
restriction) rather than the school zone itself. Though this
preference is subjective, it would avoid the need for an extra,
redundant tag, making it easier for users (e.g. routers) to parse the
data." (sorry to repeat myself).

Hmm ok, fair enough, you've convinced me - although you'd probably
want to use maxspeed:time_limited to indicate that the value is not a
"time", but a full description of a "time-limited" restriction.

Ok - if you've made up your mind on that, then fair enough. My only
suggestion, then, would be to replace school_zone_on and
school_zone_maxspeed with school_zone:on and school_zone:maxspeed.
