The option appears a popular choice!
It might be a good addition, although I think it would have
to work with all element types and not just roads.

So I will take it that there is no-one in favour of just removing
often repeated names automatically, and really as long as they
don't cause any harm I don't see any problem with them.

So I will merge later the current simplify-sorted-roads branch which
now only uses the modified algorithm when there is a large number of
same named roads. It never takes more than a fraction of a second.
