A bigger question.

I see someone has already proposed landuse=tree_row
   http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Proposed_features/tree_row

I wanted a tag for miscellaneous bits of open grass with trees and shrubs
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Proposed_features/Misc._urban_open_space

but the most common comment on the mailing list was "I don't understand 
what the difference is between this and a park" (though no one has put 
that in the wiki page). So I gave up, even though I think they are very 
different. I've tagged my bits of open space as parks even though they 
aren't.

Maybe I should resurrect this.
