[Tagging] automated edits seem to remove crossing=zebra drastically

[António Madeira]

The problem, I believe is with iD's presets.
When I started mapping some years ago I always marked crossings as
zebras, then iD changed the preset to crossing =marked and I believe
that's what you're seeing with the increasing number of this tag.
Although iD presents the type selector within that element, with
"uncontrolled", "traffic_signs", "unmarked", "zebra", "no", "toucan",
"pelican" and others, most mappers just leave the first value, which is
"marked".
