It's always been the case that names sometimes get rendered for objects that

It's a bug in the mapnik stylesheet basically, but not one which is very to
fix.

Thanks for the explanation. So I guess we should avoid using name=* on
anything which should not be rendered.

Not really, no.

As always you should avoid tagging for the renderer and tag what exists on the ground and not worry too much about exactly how things render with the current rendering technology, which is bound to improve over time.
