OSM needs to provide for objects that fall under more than one category, 
whether it is done by allowing multiple tags with the same key, using 
semicolon-delimited values, or some other means. One often-quoted 
expression is that "OSM needs to show the ground truth", and it is 
frequently the ground truth that objects fit into more than one category.
