Id: highway=crossing nodes with the tag kerb=* are updated to curb nodes

[BjornRasmussen]

Upgrading the tags of this crossing causes unexpected results: http://preview.ideditor.com/master/#background=Mapbox&disable_features=boundaries&id=n5489547638&map=20.00/36.07148/-79.81034

Ugh yeah - a kerb tag on the crossing-road junction node is really wrong. Not sure whether this is a widespread enough practice that iD should include code to remove it.

The combination of highway=crossing + kerb=* is used 80,767 times according to taginfo.

The kerb=* value is commonly used, and is permitted by the key:kerb page on the wiki. The barrier=kerb is definitely not correct. I can't think of a reason why a node would ever have both barrier=kerb and highway=crossing. This pair of tags is currently on 216 nodes that were modified within the last 10 days, according to Overpass (node["barrier"="kerb"]["highway"="crossing"](newer:"{{date:10day}}")({{bbox}});).

There's relevant discussion in the comments on changeset 70648272.

I agree that kerb shouldn't be used on crossings anymore, but it is a bug that iD treats crossings with these tags as curbs.

So what's about

• either just ignore highway=crossing + kerb=*
• or showing a kind of field or something when getting onto highway=crossing + kerb=* that shows something like "try to add barrier=kerb nodes on the crossing way _(if there is one)_"...
