There are a great many sub tag that could be applied ... but let us 1st 
get tap through :)
Then open discussion on "water sub tag" .. that could be applied to 
other water objects as well?

e.g.
potability? = yes, no, unknown (comment .. why not leave the tag off 
then?), boil, boil+filter, filter
temperature = cold, tepid (ambient), hot, boiled (was boiled, still hot 
for making tea etc), boiling, adjustable
closure?=yes (can be closed), no (continuous flow), on/off, timed, 
adjustable, hold on (for the closing device) (if there can be no flow - 
then it is not a tap, not water)
spigot?=straight (no fixing method), thread (need to add thread 
dimension), quick_release (need to add method/s), others?
height=x (meters between outlet and 'ground'.
flow_rate=y (litres per minute)

To ease discussion each of those could be a separte proposal and a 
separate discussion/thread titles "water sub tag; xxxx"?

--------------- Comment/observation
The drinking_water tag is rendered as a tap! I think this should be used 
for the tap tag. The
drinking_water tag could be rendered as a 'blubber' eg
