[Tagging] Is it OK to use amenity=bicycle_rental for bicycle rental locations?

[joost schouppe]

I never even realized it was primarily meant for docks. The wiki describes
what people do, not some ideal world where tags make perfect sense. So I
would have described it in a more neutral way.
BTW, as a data user, we used the network=* tag to throw out the docks and
keep places specialized in renting out bicycles; that worked out pretty
well where we checked (though results may vary of course).
