Validation issue - natural=esker shouldn't throw warning of unclosed way

[guytoronto]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Create an unclosed way
2. Tag as natural=esker
3. Run validation

What is the expected result?

No warning. natural=esker is only valid on nodes or unclosed ways.

What happens instead?

Validation warns "Unclosed way - natural type esker"

Why it could not be natural=ridge ridge=esker? This way you get automatic support everywhere when anyone support ridges - rather than fighting uphill battle and irritating data consumers.

Thanks. This works. I'll close this ticket and update the OSM wiki as well.
