It's a limit so stating limited is redundant, otherwise you'd use 
maxspeed:wet_limited maxspeed:hvg_limited

I wasn't disagreeing with using maxspeed:school_zone, this seems to make sense, 
however school_zones are a special case where what days and times the school 
zones in that area are in effect would vary by year, so you place the school 
holiday information in an appropriate administrative boundary, where as the 
zone in question only needs to store the time.

maxspeed:school_zone=hh:mm-hh:mm[,hh:mm-hh:mm];speed

This explains what the restriction is, school zone, the times it is in effect 
and the reduced speed all in one line. school zones are a corner case and I 
don't think you should try to shoe horn them into a general time restriction 
since they don't operate during school holidays.
