According to the wiki
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:man_made%3Dflagpole you can use
flag:wikidata to specify the exact flag. The Australian Aboriginal Flag is
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q1285625 and the Torres Strait Islander Flag
is https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q462621. Then there is no ambiguity on
what the flag is.
