[Tagging] [RFC] Feature proposal - Tag:natural=wadi

[Peter Elderson]

I like this proposal very much.
One thing: by its nature, other naturals will overlap with natural=wadi,
right? Any thoughts on that?
And, you say you can map it as a node. That seems a bit strange, because
it's such an elongated feature.
