OT to roads but on the subject of Wikidata

Have noticed recently that iD has upped it's "suggestions" for various
features to include a lot more Wikidata, but I'm not sure about their ideas?

e.g. for Flagpoles, they now include:
+ country=AU (instead of au)
+ flag:name=Australia
+ flag:wikidata=Q81676
+ subject=Australia
+ subject:wikidata=Q408

Do we really need a link to Australia?

They also now have optional presets (including short names & Wikidata) for
"Qld Ambulance Service" when you enter Ambulance, "Qld Police Service" for
Police, & "Qld Fire & Emergency Services, but to get that one, you have to
enter Queensland, not Fire?

Thanks

Graeme
