So we would need something like:

mkgmap:ref    -> 1st
mkgmap:name   -> 2nd
mkgmap:name_1 -> 3rd
mkgmap:name_2 -> 4th

Everything else should be done in style-file. What about the case if one
tag is missing? Eg. mkgmap:ref = <empty>. Should then the 1st one stay
empty as well or should this field filled with mkgmap:name?

If there are no issues with Garmin, I would prefer let the missing ones
stay empty. So it's quite clear and constant which tag is associated
with which field.
