Re: [openrailwaymap] Suggestion for openrailwaymap.org rendering: Use maxspeed instead of layer

For the speed theme, I suggest to render faster lines on top of slow

which and where the fast lines are. Currently, this doesn't work well:
E.g. the Lötschbergbasistunnel at 250 km/h is not visible in many zoom
levels, since the slower Lötschberg-Bergstrecke is visible instead (in
some zoom levels, the number "250" from the Lötschbergbasistunnel is
visible, but the color is the 80 km/h turquoise of the
Lötschberg-Bergstrecke. The problem is also widespread in Austria.
as you can see in the stylesheet [1], the value of z-index is already
dependent on the maxspeed (except from some highspeed lines). So a line
with 80 km/h maxspeed should not be drawn on the top of a highspeed
line.
I do not know why the lines are still rendered in a different order.
Maybe the order of the MapCSS rules has an influence on the drawing
priority. I can try to invert their order.
It seems that this problem also occurs in JOSM.
