I have written a proposal which aims to change this tagging scheme: [1] However, on a second thought, what you talk about is probably a different concept. An agglomération has precise entry and exit points, marked by the city limit sign - in Italy it's the same. I know that many mappers don't want to have this defined by a polygon, arguing that this would force consumers to do a spatial query to understand what the speed limit is; however, the legal constraint also involves other restrictions (e.g., no honking), and a dedicated tag would work better in this sense.
