exclude highway=bus_stop from "Crossing highways"

[mkoniecz]

What steps will reproduce the problem? ¶

1. Encounter highway=bus_stop mapped as area, with highway=footway mapped as lines
2. Run validator
3. Get complaints

What is the expected result? ¶

highway=footway may cross highway=bus_stop area without need to add pointless nodes

What happens instead? ¶

​https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/535349593 generates complaints

Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if possible. ¶

I would map it as highway=bus_stop node but I see no value in converting area to node

In 14386/josm:

fix #16919 - exclude highway=bus_stop|platform from "Crossing highways"

[skyper]

Do not like the change, how should a routing software route without connection? Is it too hard to connect these objects in a common node ? I see different mapping which only connects the platform with short footways.

"Is it too hard to connect these objects with a common node ?" - more of irritating. There are some people that love to add (quite suspect) areas for tram stops and bus stops, without adding this connections.

"How should a routing software route without connection?" - in the same way as it deals with other objects unattached to footways, like tram stop nodes, shops, bus stop nodes?
