What about http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:area ?  As I said above,
so long as the road doesn't have any street lines within it (as most of the
residential roads where I live are), you just draw a border around the area
and tag it with highway=residential (or whatever) and area=yes.  For
example,
