It has, and it should. Anything added to OSM makes editing more complicated for mappers to come - *especially* when it's relations that always have the potential to trip up the newbie mapper. Something that is completely unnecessary reduces the ease of editing of our map while adding no value to compensate for that. It makes it harder for us to achieve what we want - a map editable by anyone.

[talk-au] Audible fences
Info only barrier=fence sensory=audible ie the squeaking screeching fences that supposedly replace cattle grids. I asked for input some months ago on how to map. With the recent ID editor update there is now a warning that a fence has to be a line, even though it is placed on the road.
