Map readability isn't that good with water components

Description

Report from ML :

"Lakes are colored blue, but the sea is not. All I get

is a blue coastline. When looking quickly, one wonders if it is the coast or some river. But I don't know - maybe this is a map problem rather than a navit problem? Having the sea in the same color as the city doesn't work too well."

May concern mainly OSM maps (sea)

coast lines need to be converted to polygons, which is a lengthy, complicated and due to incomplete osm data a probably not always working task

is this the reason why http://openstreetmap.org/?lat=45.527&lon=-73.572&zoom=10&layers=B00FTF 's water is not color-filled in navit?

Replying to cp15:

coast lines need to be converted to polygons, which is a lengthy, complicated and due to incomplete osm data a probably not always working task

Since rev 1401, there is a perl script (osm2navit_sea) that can transform a .osm file to render the sea. It needs to be integrated in osm2navit.
