I have doubts if that's a good idea.
If multipolygons are splitted by splitter it is possible that some 
polygons are dropped because they are not inside the tile bounds.
This makes it possible that the outer ring survives only.

The definition of the multipolygon says that the tags from the 
multipolygon are used for the outer polygons ("Tags describing the 
multipolygon (e.g. landuse=forest) should go on the relation. The outer 
way(s) should be left untagged, unless they describe something in their 
own right."). If these multipolygons are dropped the tag information of 
the multipolygon is lost.

I propose to revert this commit unless there are hard reasons for it.
