Is there a possibility to indicate that a tower is specifically
a landmark with a tag of some sort without knowing the height
(most of them are not publicly known around here) ? Because some
are really useful for navigation (visible from a long way) while
other are only visible from up close. <br>

I would use the height tag .. and estimate the height.While it will
not be precise you should be able to convey the difference between
two of significant height differences. Of course you can place a
source:height=visual estimation so that others can see where the
height cam from and fine tune it if they have better data. I have
done this for various towers, in one case I used the shadows in
imagery to obtain the estimation from relative lengths of shadows.

<div>I was personally using the communication_tower tag only to
indicate that it is a landmark when it is an especially huge
tower (and that was the only difference between a tower and
this, to me). </div>

<div>Can confirm that it's preset in iD, as I've just
mapped one (a mobile phone tower) but don't know about
JOSM (or anything else)?</div>
