The problem with name="" is that it isn't blindingly obvious what that means to other mappers... people are likely to just delete it as an unnecessary empty tag. There are also probably a few of these about already. The good point about name=__none__ is that I can bet large amounts of money that no street is actually named "__none__" -- the bad points are that renderers that don't know about it are going to write it in the street name, and that if little Bobby Tables gets elected to a council somewhere we may be in trouble ;-) I'd also be keen on something that no sane yahoo tracer could think was a good thing to add.
