It's also easy enough to actively seek out and tag unnamed ways, though
harder for places, using Maplint output. Personally, I plot various
classes of maplint badness to a colour PS file using gnuplot and carry
the printout with me for doing targeted fixups.

<t.i.c.>
I propose the addition of an maplint_excuse=* tag which can be used to
suppress maplint error and warning output when it's known that the data
cannot be gathered. For example, if the sign has been stolen from a
highway=residential, and the council haven't got round to replacing it.
