In NSW, Australia everyone has the right to come and knock on your

I'm guessing access=destination would be a sane default for most
locations.

What is wrong with converting them to underscores specifically, we're
not using things in written works, but in a semi-programming type
language.

as for examples, there is nothing on the Map_Features wiki page that
uses a hyphen, eg power=sub_station
