like all these colons in key names, because (as far as I know) that means
having an extra column in the database produced by osm2pgsql for
rendering....and every time I want to add an extra column it means an
entire re-import of the databse.

Therefore I would be much keener on craft = [beer|cider|perry] with
whatever separator you  would like between them than craft:cider=yes etc.

The other thing that I thought of is that 'craft' sounds like a sensible
tag for microbreweries, but maybe not for a bit industrial one - maybe use
craft= for microbreweries and industry= for bigger ones, then we can render
them differently?

If someone puts up a wiki page with the proposed tagging scheme, I will set
up a renderer for it.


Graham.
