I updated the patch today.  Stops with none of these attributes will
be left unnamed: name, ref, operator, shelter, covered.

Stops with just (shelter|covered)=(yes|no) will be called " -" or " +".

It would be nice to get rid of the leading spaces when no name is given,
but I would not like to duplicate the rules.  It could be done by
replacing lines like

{ name '${name|def:} ${ref|def:}-${operator|def:}' }

with

{ name '${name} ${ref|def:}-${operator|def:}'|'${ref|def:}-${operator|def:}' }

Best regards,

	Marko
