If someone feels like reviewing the stylesheet and providing a patch, I'd go for dashed casings rather than solid casings where surface is specified and it's not one of a small set (paved, asphalt, concrete, paving_stones).
I've used a similar scheme on my local map (for distinguishing the quality of tracks and paths rather than roads) and it's fairly intuitive. (For OS afficionados, I haven't yet had anyone ask me whether it means unfenced...)
