[mkgmap-dev] some comments on mkgmap default style

Hi,

some observation about the default style:
1.  Coastlines are shown as thin blue lines, is it possible to render
coastline as polygon, where sea areas are shaded as blue.  A work
around I did before is to manually edit all sea-areas and then add a
natural=water tag (bad data edit) .
2.  Administrative boundaries clutter the map. They appear like roads
and can be confusing while driving.  Suggestion is to make the admin
boundaries thinner.

Hope it helps improving the default stylesheet.
