[Allroads]

+1 landcover

+1 on a hierarchy index and a well and a thoughtful methodology.

landuse, should describe more the use of the land.

For example:
A road, this include the footway, cycleway, the verge, the barriers, traffic_islands, the trees.
The verge, that is a part of the use, landuse=highway, the area is area:highway=verge, landcover=grass, landcover fits in nicely. And how it is managed can be set.
The hedge as, a separation between road parts, can be a part of landuse=highway, area:barrier=hedge, hedge_type=? landcover=shrubbery/or else, species. And how it is managed can be set.
The hedges on traffic_island, roundabouts, is a part of the landuse=highway , is a part of a area:highway=traffic_island, is the area:barrier=hedge, hedge_type=? landcover=shrubbery/or else, species.
The same for flowerbeds, etc.
The apron at a roundabout. 
At the end all parts must be named.
greenery versus shrubbery, is it the same or is the one a part of the other? hierarchy thinking.

The landcover key covers this nicely.
