What plugin ?  I know of none that do what this does.  I think the tool 
will help the discussion.  I'm just creating our translated/modded 
version that applies to our road code.  It's easy to begin with the 
basis tags , for instance: access=no , then later when adding subsigns 
for C3 like  "uitzgezonderd bus" , you need to get creative and check 
the wiki to find out this would have to be added : key="access:bus" 
value="yes"

I won't be checking in any files until they are ok.  It will sure help 
beginners to map this, I spend hours in the wiki trying to translate 
that into the settings.

But seriously , "End the discussion on how to tag everything" ?  You 
have too much spare time :)
