[Tagging] Additional attributes for drinking_water

[Bryce Nesbitt]

I would like to move forward on adding richness to the mapping of 
drinking water sources:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Drinking_water_attributes
Would people take a peek and make comments, so things can be taken to 
the next stage?

There are about 30,000 drinking water sources mapped in osm.
There is already a mobile app that draws on OSM data:

The tag is here:
http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/tags/amenity=drinking_water

There is also the related tag:
http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/drinking_water#values
Which seems to be primarily useful to identify places you might think 
have drinkable water
(like a restroom or mountain hut or a well 
<http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/node/944463314>) but don't.
There are also a few confusing ones like:
