[Tagging] graves and relations

Hello,
I have a problem with mapping graves. First of all, the JOSM tombstone
plugin suggests tomb=tombstone as one option, which according to the
wiki is deprecated. The plugin furthermore creates a relation
type=person which - I guess - is useful when you have several members of
the same family in the same or different graveyard and you want to group
them. However, and maybe that is a regional thing, in Ireland, you often
find the names of several people on one tombstone, so I would rather
have a relation type=tombstone (or similar) and be able to add all the
people to it with their respective wikidata identifier, if there is more
than one family member with one, as well as name, birth and death date
etc. But even if only one of them does have a wikidata identifier and
the others don't, I'd like to be clear about the buried:wikidata/
buried:wikipedia association.
Is there such a relation type that I have missed?
(The above mentioned relation type=person also seems to never have been
approved and just slipped into the de facto/ in use status.)
Enjoy your weekend!
Anne
