Since It was your first idea I wanted to tell you my first idea. That
is to let the diveders in the lanes tag represent the lines.
| (solid line)
: (dashed line)
:| (crossable from on side)
turn:lanes=left:through|through|:right   (for example)

2 big drawbacks.
1. The :lanes tag is not "one" tag so there will be inconsistencies.
2. Not backwards compatible (all lanes tags would be solid lines now I think..)

But if somebody could solve those two, I think it would be a very sleek idea?
