Of course i was kidding :)
Anyway, back to topic, yup, the
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:landuse%3Dwood
tag, like any other tag on OSM as more detail gets added, eg. Name;
Operator; Boundary etc. It becomes more clearer what that area with tree's
actually is listed as.

And back on subject,
IMO That KeepRight!  site, it looks cool, and certainly is an effective tool
with that link-back to edit. .. maybe something thaat OpenStreetBugs could
merge with?
Ya the conclusion is to skip that 'error' anything related to tree
designation.   And deal with everything else instead. :)

Cheers,
Sam
