+1, it is easier, because it is not true that width and length aren’t contained 
in the area, they are just harder to get from the data.

From a technical point of view, a different tag wouldn’t be necessary either, 
it is already implicit whether a runway is tagged on a linear way or an area, 
but it could eventually be useful from a social point of view (if different 
tags are used people might be more aware and might eventually be mapping both 
on the same object more frequently)

Cheers, Martin
