I'd prefer something more generic like landuse=religious

For the site relation I used site=monastery / shrine / abbey but
probably also here some more generic term like place_of_worship or
religious could be used and then the precise type would be another
subtag. Actually I also need something for religious groups that offer
hospitality to pilgrims and for events with visiting groups, but are
not themself a church (like a religious conference location with
possibility to eat and sleep there).
