At the moment we have a rather confusing mix. If I peer into my crystal ball, I can see physical attributes (width, surface, lanes) being on ways, and non-physical attributes (references, routes, even street names) moving to relations. Ways will end up being a connected series of nodes, ending where the properties change. That's just my hunch. But there's no hurry. We're short on developers, and documentation writers, and have a huge community to think about. There's no point in forcing the pace on this issue - our efforts would be better focussed on forcing the pace on actual mapping - there's still a staggering amount of streets to be mapped (even just considering Europe), regardless of how we tag them.
