If you're arguing that the tagged node should be where the stop sign  
is and not on the intersection, surely it would be beside the way not  
one of the nodes forming it? Most of the stop signs I've seen aren't  
stuck in the middle of the road.

Or we could just always use a relation, so that mapping and software  
don't have to check for two different things, when editing and  
processing data respectively.
