a further step that would make this fantastically amazing, and hugely
speed up the data-gathering process, would be to incorporate a
speech-recognition engine into the process.

understanding tag names (amenity = pub, shop = supermarket, etc.)
should be fairly simple, as there are a limited number of words to
learn. whether it would ever be able to understand more complicated
things like pub names, is another question
