IMO. I think the ways should be named. It is useful enough for a routing ap to use the names, and a rendering app should be intelligent enough to not render names for short ways that connect to a way of the same name. Relations may help here - one day. A validator patch to ignore short ways, is always going to miss some other short way. It is easy enough to shut the validator up, if that is the intention. Use a tag like name:link="name". However, that is probably not a great deal better than using highway=secondary_link to start with, but it will probably render better today.
