[Tagging] breads of bakeries

[Hauke Stieler]

Hi,

I'm with some other folks here: Tagging specific types of bread seems 
not a good idea. At least in Germany there are a lot of different types 
[0], bakeries change their offers every few months and many larger 
bakeries have like ten or twenty types of bread. Also, some bakeries 
give names to their breads (e.g. "King Ludwig Bread") that do not 
indicate the type of bread. Some names are different between bakery 
chains or regions but mean the same type of bread and vice versa, the 
name if the same but the type of bread is different (due to regional 
differences or simply other recipes).

I think it's a good idea to extend the "diet:*=*" tags (e.g. 
"diet:wholegrain=yes|no|only"), because it's a more general tag 
(supermarkets might also sell wholemeal-products) and more common than 
"bread:*=*". However, bread-specific classes/categories could indeed be 
added with "bread:*=*", like "bread:rye=yes|no|only" etc.

Cheers
Hauke
