Render labels of large POI larger?

[matthijsmelissen]

As we now render landuse labels larger, it might make sense to also render labels of POI larger depending on the size of the POI. Rendering them larger would make clearer that the POI spans a large area.

However, it's not clear if this would look fine. It's also not clear if the icon should be enlarged as well. Large text with small icon might not look nice, but different size icons might not look nice either.

Some examples of large POI:

http://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=18/51.51472/-0.15230

Any suggestions what to do with this?

It will increase danger of label collision, but with "Order POI by way_area" #860 it would tend to not block display of larger icons.

I think it would be better to start from closely related #1057 that is more likely to give good results and only good results.

The feature that comes to mind is aeroway=aerodrome, which can take up a large area and has a landcover rendering, but can also be tagged on a node, and is rendered with an svg icon in addition to text label.
