It's hardly used for its intended purpose:
<br>
<br>
The tag designation=* is used to record the legal classification
of a way.

(see <a href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:designation" target="_blank">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:designation</a>
UK-only ?.)

Or is there another definition/use of designation that I'm not
aware of ?

You're right about the use, I even see I misused it myself in my
first edits even thought I understand the use as described now.
So, I'm correcting now. tx for the overpass query, makes it easy
to fix this.

I fixed some (see changeset
<a href="http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/16639881" target="_blank">http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/16639881</a>
). There is some info that you just can't throw away to fix the tag
use, I tried selecting appropriate keys(most work was re-keying the
info) to keys like operator, name, note or ref. For example : the
airport buildings used designation to put some interesting
information on the buildings and it differs from the already chosen
name , see <a href="http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/136459078" target="_blank">http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/136459078</a>
. I parked that info in 'ref' keys.<br>
<br>
Some information you just need to get rid of as it duplicates other
keys. There are a few in that bbox that I left alone, there is node
1858449632. Someone with more experience on 'archeological' tagging
than me should do this.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
