About building damage, I'm the only one guilty here. I've started 
working on adding this to the style a few days ago, but I've missed that 
the style was actually used on field already, and so I've undervalued 
the impact and urgency.
I'm working on this right ahead.
Side note: the incoming new version of uMap will allow remote data 
sources, like a Xapi or OverpassAPI query. This will be one more tool 
that will allow us to do thematic maps on the fly. See a demo (not 
production ready) here: 
http://umap.fluv.io/en/map/tacloban_1148#16/11.2445/124.9994

About "landuse=residential", can you be a bit more specific? I think I'm 
not aware of any issue on this. Feel free to add an issue on Github [1]

This is also somewhere in the todo list. The initial discussion with 
MapOsmatic devs has been cut down by a server crash some weeks ago. I 
will follow up on this.

Bests,
