[OSM-newbies] Grounds surrounding churches etc.

[Tom Taylor]

I tried making the land the amenity, but I don't like the rendering. It 
came out dark grey, hiding the actual building.

The problem is actually more general. What we need is a landuse=grounds, 
or something like that, to indicate land the function of which is to 
serve the building(s) it encloses.
