All png files together are 500k. Is it not a problem to include them twice? This is only for 1 country, what if the datasets become complete for several hundred countries?
In my opinion it is better to have it foolproof. 500kB it not too much and I would worry about the hundreds of countries when we get there.
The RoadSigns plugin grows at a rate of about one new country preset per year. I have the feeling that the global bandwidth increases faster. :)
At Mapillary, they are developing a font which allows to assemble road signs. https://github.com/mapillary/traffico/blob/master/fontcustom.yml They call it a webfont, maybe it can't be used on the desktop?
I don't think you can use this as is. It seems to be a collection of svg icons that can be stacked with HTML and CSS.
The Finnish community has managed what you are trying to do [1]. Their style is probably partially generated by a script. If you end up with some code, please create a project as part of the JOSM organization on github (https://github.com/josm).
