I wanted to tag these for some time and realized some people already did 
a lot of work, especially in Europe. Now I just wanted to discuss some 
tags and unify everything.

I also started documenting everything here:

##########

operator=Tesla Motors Inc.
...seem to be mostly used. Since OSM discourages abbreviations, should 
we just sick to "Tesla Motors"? Or how is this usually done with 
corporations. Not really a fan of adding Incorporated. Also seems to be 
"Tesla Motors, Inc."

authentication:*=*
... I can't find any tags that fits on amenity=charging_station. I think 
it's bascially does it over the plug and some data cable. Not every 
Tesla can actually charge there, for some cars it's an extra upgrade you 
have to purchase. Not sure authentication:cable/plug/automated/?/=*
Or is authentication:none=no enough?

access=customers
....obviously means for Tesls customers, but what if a station is 
actually limited to for example hotel guests? Not really that important 
right now, but if someone has a good idea...

Those were the main things I noticed.
