Can you give an example of such a route and how you work with it in 
mkgmap? Why must all parts of the relation be complete in a tile?

superrelations are not handled by mkgmap (AFAIK) so there is no need to 
handle them with splitter? Once there is a good reason to process them 
with mkgmap splitter should also handle them but not the other way round.
