Again, the proposal page actually handles the point MTB vs. tourer.

Yes, if it would use descriptive terms it might solve some problems. But 
if you think of a better solution it gets really difficult to find 
better terms thats aimed towards something.

One could use 1-10, but that's even harder to recognize.

Ok, let's say were not tagging for trojan horses and our turkish mappers 
will probably be very happy ;-)

On the other hand, this might better fit into the category "heavy load" 
which is probably a different story ...
