A small pic is better than a long speach. One example with one major
street and six minor streets all having stops when intersecting with
the major street:
    |
---+---
    |
---+---
    |
---+---
    |
1) add 6 relations + minor streets split
2) add 6 different tags "stop=yes/both/-1" + minor streets split
3) add 6 nodes on the minor streets themselves and closed to the
intersections and all tagged with "highway=stop"

All solutions are valid but 3) makes contributor's life easier.
