[Tagging] In water farming on rafts?

[Robert Skedgell]

The wiki for man_made=pier includes this (rendered in OSM Carto):
"For floating rafts, tag with man_made=pier and floating=yes."
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:man%20made=pier

Could that work, combined with natural=wetland + wetland=* ? I'm not 
entirely happy with that, but it's possibly better than misusing 
natural=islet.
