[OSM-newbies] High-level types and icons

I found this:

https://github.com/smsm1/Mapzen-iOS/blob/master/res/config/area_types.xml

Which seems like a good starting point.  The tagInfo site is huge, I spent
some time in it, and got overwhelmed.  Very cool, but really hard when you
want to make it super-easy for someone to say "I see a <type> named <name>"
which is the high-level action I'm going for now.
