"while flow_direction=oneway doesn't imply any specific direction"
It is well established that oneway=yes means "in direction of the way"
and oneway=-1 "in opposite direction than the way".
To be clear, "oneway=yes" means _traffic_ direction in the direction of
the way, not _flow_ direction. In the case of waterways, these can be
different.
For waterways the _flow_ direction is assumed to be in the direction of
the way (and yes, this causes issues with some canals and drains).
However as written the wiki page currently says
"flow_direction=forward/backward/both" - it makes sense to me to avoid
the word "oneway" to avoid confusion.
Cheers,
Andy
