It was "approved" on the basis of a tiny vote on the wiki and I would 
say there is zero chance of most people switching from the tags that 
have been in use for several years to some new scheme that, as I 
understand it, requires about five tags for each path.

Given that most of the UK examples on the wiki were actually wrong by 
their own definition last time I looked I certainly plan to stick to 
what we've always done.
