An "adit" is by definition an /entrance /to a subterranean gallery or 
drift. No need to enforce this by inventing new tags that are just a 
tautology. man_made=adit is a well-established and well-defined tag.

There are people who already map the gallery indicated by the adit, 
using layer=-1 or similar. I personally object this.

Cheers,
Carsten
