Label buildings #64

When using this on top of the open street map base map in leaflet it covers some of the building/store names. Would it be possible to add these labels on top of the roof or make what's currently on the base map visible by adjusting the opacity?

Top of the roof would mean to place labels 3-dimensionally. That needs to be implemented and is not really part of OSM Buildings.

On the other hand, you can change building colors by using rgba() style colors. But it means to modify each object and also set default colors accordingly.

Another option is to use another map tile layer on top, that contains labels only.

For comparison, F4 map does such 3D labels pretty nicely: F4

It looks nice indeed and would be a great addon. Maybe fits into soemthing else I'm doing right now. At least for OSM Buildings core, I don't see this.
