Is there a reason why you write the colon as "$:" instead of ":"?
Would '${ref}: ${name}' without the "extra" $ sign work?  Or what
about "${name} (${ref})"?  Mark just removed that kind of a rule
as part of the address search patch.  Do you need to search for
motorway junctions?

I don't know if there is an easier way to test changes to the default style,
but I do "ant dist" in the mkgmap directory and generate a map with the
newly generated mkgmap.jar.  When I tested the restaurant & cuisine rules
last night, I loaded my neighbourhood to JOSM and added restaurants to
that local copy.
