[Tagging] waterway=wadi problem

waterway=wadi is used (18 180 times) and has some support (for example JOSM
and
default map style).

During implementing rendering of intermittent=yes I discovered major
problem with this tag -
the same waterway=wadi may be used for completely dried up waterway,
intermittent stream,
intermittent major river and intermittent ditch.

Therefore - it seems that using waterway=river/canal/stream/ditch/drain +
intermittent=yes is
clearly superior to using waterway=wadi.
