[mkgmap-dev] Why do we render place=island polygons in the default style?

Hi Gerd,

I guess there could exist instances, where sea/lake doesn't include a 
hole and island can be overlaid over water. But these are errors easy to 
correct in OSM data. Other function for these objects is to add a label 
to an area.

In my styles I have removed islands from polygons but left them as a 
POI. From your suggestions I would prefer to limit islands by size, 
condition natural!=coastline probably won't work correctly for/because 
of relations.
