a place which has once every 10 years some water in it wouldn't be tagged
as natural=water by me.
According to the wiki, intermettent is "used to indicate that a waterway
(river, stream, etc.) does not have a permanent flow. Or that a water body
(lake) disappears seasonaly."

10 years aren't a "season" typically.
