IMHO, if there is not signage or some sort of official designation to
back it up, this kind of subjective, user-supplied information belongs
somewhere other than the OSM database. It's certainly valuable, but it
should be stored in some sort of layer elsewhere, that can be combined
with OSM data upon request.
