I agree these should be updated to the new tag, but not simply with a
automated edit - it would be much better to check each individual
instance first before retagging.
I've just looked at some of the highway=ford nodes, and a number of
them could do fixing/improving other things as well. For example
there's a ford tag but the roads visible on bing haven't been added,
with some the road and waterway aren't connected, and on others
there's a ford tag on a road but no waterway running through it.
So let's get the tag updated but not as a find/replace exercise - do
it as a UK project, maproulette or whatever so that these other issues
can be fixed as well.
Just to be clear to everybody, my proposed edit will not create or solve
any issues. It's a simple transference from one tag to another.
I fail to see how "other existing issues" make it a reason not to
perform the edit.
Indeed, performing the edit will make it *easier* to do what Michael
proposes as *all* fords will have the same tag. (And they'll be rendered
on the 'standard' map)
