Nice find. Digesting now. One of the problems with the unified stoparea proposal is that it suggests mapping one way per tram/rail track, which currently looks a bit of a mess in the default renderers.
Going forward, we'll have to address this somehow. Either we have a way per track, and leave renderers to somehow figure out how to draw a single line through the middle, or have a way per track except at stations, or have a way per track plus a way down the middle for the 'line' (though this'd be a bit confusing when editing).
