This wasn't a multipolygon before. It was a collection of riverbank elements. Nobody likes them but nobody is bold enough to delete them. Tagged back to: type=waterway waterway=riverbank and added a note= There are a few of that monster relations out there: http://www.h-renrew.de/h/osm/osmchecks/02_Relationstypen/planet/bd8a1061c196c9de.html Some are tagged with type=collection. That's not better or worse, just different.
