IIRC when the contact:* stuff was proposed, the reasons for it were that
it was "tidier" to have all forms of contact grouped, and that in some
cases there might be different telephone numbers or different web sites
for different purposes, e.g. a general contact telephone number and,
say, an emergency or reservations or god-knows-what other telephone number.

FWIW I think the simpler tags are perfectly ok.

Tagging list will probably yield more voices about this.

Bye
Frederik
