IMHO this discussion is a bit off base. OSM should not be a database of 
general facts about the world - there are much better places for that 
(see dbpedia, for one). We should store basic information that is likely 
to be useful to a renderer (capitals tend to get rendered differently 
from other cities), and leave it at that.

So, this suggestion:

capital=4

...is good. And a role relation for the city to its 
province/state/country would be handy, too.
