   It would be convenient for data consumers to have the crossing 
explicitly tagged without having to examine the crossing street to find 
the correct rule.

   The first thing that comes to mind is railway=tram_crossing, but 
there's the fuzziness that comes with light_rail.

   Another solution is to add a modifier railway:crossing=tram  since 
it's not level and to avoid conflict with crossing=* or railway=crossing
