[Tagging] Is it man_made=water_tap?

[Peter Neale]

IMHO, if the user cannot (normally) access it, it is not worth mapping.  Or, do you want to micro-map every control valve (same function as a tap) in the water supply system, including those that cannot be seen?

around here, the typical drinking fountain is an iron cast column with permanent flow. There is a water tap inside the column but the "user" cannot open or close it (unless the cover is open, happens from time to time, but is not the regular situation).

So the "user" cannot control the flow, but technically, a tap is present. Shall we ignore this tap because it is usually neither visible not accessible?
Cheers,
Martin
