What do people think of this:

I was dubious when I first saw what someone (not me) had done in these
two locations. On the other hand, it is hard to represent properly how
pedestrians are intended navigate a junction if you don't represent the
islands, so I have warmed to it a bit. It does make rendering a street
map a mess, often with lots of apparently superfluous one way arrows and
a bulge, except at a very large scale.
