Overall a good idea! I had something like that on my TODO list,
so I want to confirm that it is a good idea.
Great to see that someone else is doing this :)

-------------

"move Key:drink to KeyPrefix:drink & document Key:drink as a tagging mistake"

I would do it separately. Note
"The individual tag values can be yes, served, retail, draught or bottled."
at https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:drink

The same for other tags mentioned there.

-------------

Also, I prefer 

KeyPrefix:disused:
over
KeyPrefix:disused

but that is just my preference.

---------------

I would consider:

KeyPart:conditional:
over
KeySuffix:conditional

and

KeyPart:disused:over
KeyPrefix:disused

to avoid prefix/suffix underestendable
by 1% of people.
