[Imports] Zapis trees in Serbia

[Mateusz Konieczny]

sacred=yes in turn loses info about marking on a tree (that, as far as I understood,
is both mandatory and verifiable part of tree being a Zapis tree)

For this reason zapis=yes  imho is too specific and following Mateusz argument I would propose something like sacred=yes as a more generic tag.
