Elaborated in a separate mail: It's just so much easier to let the 
oceantiles.dat part of the tile serving plugin do it's job and show land/sea 
tiles. Having it show different tiles (say in different colors) would imply 
making the tile server more complicated.

This is how I would expect it too. But take care, often people tag rivers 
coming from the sea as coastline for quite a bit into the land. Therefore 
changing the oceantiles status can really imply checking the data.
