[Tagging] RFC - role values for members of recreational route relations.

[s8evq]

I think this is a decent proposal. Thanks Peter for putting it online. 

The only thing I would like to point out is about "alternative" or "(alternate is also accepted)". Perhaps when can decide on one of the two. As it's all new and almost no roles are currently in use, it's better to make a clear choice between the two. So we avoid confusion in the long term.

Otherwise, looks all fine to me.
