> If you mean #5294, @gravitystorm and I agreed in [#3932 (comment)](https://github.com/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/issues/3932#issuecomment-3846959872) that tags for notes are overkill for this particular purpose, and it seems like you’ve come to the same conclusion. Freeform tags might be useful later if we decide to turn the notes system into a full-blown bug tracker, but that’s a very different discussion. We’re suggesting instead to rely on an HTTP header or additional request parameter – which is not tags – to positively identify the software that’s sending the request.

I didn't say or agree any of this, just to be clear. I don't agree that tags are overkill, but it might be helpful to remember that there are more than one type of tag in OSM (immutable kv like changesets, versionable kv like nodes, let's not discuss trace tags...) so there might be some misunderstanding there. I also didn't say that http headers or additional request parameters should be relied on, that would be inconsistent with the rest of the API which expects information to generally be sent in document bodies. What I did say is that we shouldn't use the HTTP User-Agent strings for this purpose.
