Hmmm, a lot of the mappers I was talking to told me that it was a burden 
to find "the right tag" for something, in the hope that it will "appear 
on the map".

Seems a lot of mappers would be quite happy to follow an at least more 
fixed tagging scheme than what we currently have today.

Unfortunately, there's no magic wand to get to this quickly ...
