A) The present waste= key is meant to be used under either the keys 
'amenity=waste_basket' or 'amenity=waste_disposal', not to stand by itself.

B) Dual tags of the one type on one node lead to confusion! For example;

amenity=toilet

fee=$5

fee=$15

Which fee do you pick? Same with

amenity=waste_disposal

waste=paper

waste=dog_excrement


They should be on different nodes to avoid one or more tags being 
dropped, or possibly one rendered symbol over writing another?

sanitary .. can be taken as a female waste product... avoid in this use.
