I'd like to see thing tied tighter to what is going on in the real
world (i.e. in the db). So I'd like to see proposed features already
in use by a few different people before they can be "approved". Only
stuff that goes directly against or otherwise changes established
features should be discussed before implementing.

In fact, I don't see any point for voting for additional tags if it's
just e.g adding another type of amenity. It's worth checking that it's
not already in use and making others aware of it, but there's nothing
stopping you just getting on with it. It's only for e.g. tagging
rivers entirely differently that warrants discussion and a minimum
consensus.
