I offer my +1 for "consensus for the change" that flag:type=indigenous might be added to the wiki.  However, Phil also suggests flag:type=cultural (as an existing example), so someone might also add that, perhaps as a given, perhaps as a suggestion.  We could also get fancy and say flag:type=indigenous;cultural and let renderers figure that out.  Renderers often, though not always, DO parse such semicolon-separated values, though what they do with them is wholly up to that particular renderer.

As I said:  "nuanced, complex."  I'm not trying to throw a monkey wrench into the pot, or tip it over completely, merely stir it as I mutter my observations.
