[Tagging] wetap specific tags

[Volker Schmidt]

No, obviously, not in the sense that we do that systematically, but the
problem exists in real terms. Drinking water is in many places of the world
one of hose pieces of information that would be nice to be able to tag:
have been here today, it's still working. Petrol stations is another. Or in
case of areas with low population density the fact that a food supply point
is still operational can be of great interest (When I rode on bicycle the
old Route 66 in 2016 one of the essential tasks of our group leader was to
keep a checklist of food stores, water points, and accommodation, in order
to keep the ACA route description up-to-date)
