completely agree. These assumptions belong in the rendering rules, not
in the database.

The bot author's ears turn red?

The last time that someone did this, a lot of people complained (me 
included) here.  If there's a descrepancy then that needs to be 
resolved.  If you've got access to REALLY good aerial imagery you might 
be able to do it remotely, but otherwise you might have to actually go 
there and have a look.


Having the likes of keepright as a source of "stuff to check in the 
field" is really useful, "note=layer set by bot" is less so.


Cheers,
Andy

if layer does not exist and bridge = yes
then layer = 1
note = layer set by a bot, please check manually
?

possibly with some intelligence by checking for ways crossing but not
intersecting

Ive fixed quite a number of spots where keepright has picked up a river
and highway on the same layer (=0), generally without a junction node.
