Hi Lulu-Ann,

Also creating way names automatically would force me to name all crossings with 
loc_names - this just moves the problems from ways to crossings, I guess.

it should be possible to generate names for the ways by looking at the last named way or the last place on the route.

Some examples:

When I'm on that way, it could say "between Gau-Odernheim and Dolgesheim, 2km east of Gau-Odernheim"

or, when I'm closer to Dolgesheim, it could say
When I'm on that way, it could say "between Gau-Odernheim and Dolgesheim, 1km west of Dolgesheim"

It would be more complicated when we would be on this way:

http://www.openstreetmap.org/?way=66157482

It could say "Between Gau-Odernheim, Bechtolsheim and Dolgesheim, 3km east of Gau-Odernheim and 3km northwest of Bechtolsheim"


Is this the kind of messages you thought of?

Peter
