Rather than change the tagging on the buildings, if they are currently 
enclosed by a landuse=residential polygon*, perhaps change that to 
something else (splitting the polygon if appropriate)?

Unfortunately that creates another headache, as neither 
landuse=construction nor landuse=brownfield really seem to fit the 
original case.
