[Tagging] Feature Proposal - RFC - holy well

[Bert -Araali- Van Opstal]

A church is a specific attribution of amenity=place_of_worship related
to a specific religion.

Typical tags, or better said attribution of amenity=place_of_worship  in
this context are:

  * building <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:building>=church
    <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:building%3Dchurch>
  * building
    <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:building>=cathedral
    <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:building%3Dcathedral>
  * building <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:building>=chapel
    <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:building%3Dchapel>
  * building <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:building>=mosque
    <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:building%3Dmosque>
  * building
    <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:building>=synagogue
    <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:building%3Dsynagogue>
  * building <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:building>=temple
    <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:building%3Dtemple>
  * building <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:building>=shrine
    <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:building%3Dshrine>

There are religions where a place of worship is not a building, but a
natural feature.
