the same conceptual problem exists with pylons where they are shared by two 
bridges
or aerial tramways. Actualy every pylon breaks the rule by definition because 
it 
connects "ground" with layer=0 with something else at a different level.
How do you want to model such cases better? Lifts in buildings?

In practice this rule is broken more often than you would think: Hamburg is full
of waterways connected with roads on bridges through a tag obstacle. France is 
full of bridges sharing a node with the waterway bellow.

It may be worth to tag have such a rule restricted for "ways of the same type"
and a short well defined list of exceptions.
