Upon further analysis of empty relations, I suspect they will be far more
problematic than I expected. While it is on the wiki since 2010 and feels
like a powerful tool, it does not seem to be used (let alone supported by
consumers).

My bad, I should not recommend things that I have not used myself.

I am curious as to the recommended approach - we have a similar parking
zone system here in Prague and I have no idea how to map it. A relation
still sounds like a horrible solution due to the parking depending on the
side of the road and due to the sheer frequency of road splits due to (for
example) added surface tags.

Maybe a wikidata tag?
