This might solve the actual problem, but I think it is a dirty hack. When we
have the next tag with such a problem, will we add another option switch?

Instead we should look for a cleaner solution, where either the mp processing
can be better controlled via a style file (e.g. a new style file applicable tags
for the mp-processing or perhaps limit the mp-processing to the expressions
listed in the polygon file), or where the results of the mp-processings will be
marked, so that the original and the artifical polygons can be distinguished in
the following processings.
