Sound reasonable to me - I'll leave sport=bowls alone.

Pretty much everyone has agreed that the type=* is being abused and that 
chaining sport=boules;boules=petanque is cleaner so I'm going to correct 
the 718 occurrences of sport=boules;type=petanque into 
sport=boules;boules=petanque.

I might also do it for sport=boules;type=bocce which would become 
sport=boules;boules=bocce.

There are 1093 occurrences of sport=boules;type=* :
