Unfortunately this isn’t feasible.  Normally we render a feature like a
fence or hedge in a separate “layer” so that they are on top of certain
features like landuse, and below other features like roads.

We only select the relevant features for each layer: for barriers that’s
just things with the key “barrier”, so that rendering does not take too
long. If we wanted to change the rendering based on the presence of other
features on the same way, we would have to query a long list of features.
This is computationally expensive, which is slow and costly for the servers.
