But... that's why we have computers, no? JOSM, iD and even P2 are actively developed. With the right technical effort: Reversing a way with traffic_signals:direction could do some version of the right thing. The editors bake in all manner of tagging assumptions, this could be one of them. It is even an educational opportunity: reverse a way with a "direction" tag, and a convenience popup comes along saying "reverse the direction tags also". Poof, the mapper learns about direction tags. And it's certainly a JOSM validation possibility to check if the intersection is sane prior to save.
