[Tagging] Tagging of historic=monument

The problem may relate in part to Germany, where a natural monument is a
thing.

Also in the USA the tag is ambiguous.
historic=memorial perhaps better fits the definition.
But even then there are many small memorials and roadside plaques that
could reasonably be tagged historic=memorial or historic=monument,
but don't seem to match your definition well.

It would help if the agency certifying the monument were identified per
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/heritage
For example:

heritige=2
historic=memorial
heritage:operator=nhrp
ref:nrhp=nhrp=07001063
