sitting in a bus, to use the previous example, I really don't see how 
encoding text at 50km/h would better capture the river under the road 
compared to a shooting: either it's not visible from the moving vehicle 
and photo <> text won't change anything, or you're looking in the right 
direction and it's visible from the bus and then typing text is often 
the limiting factor
I'll test OSMTracker tomorrow, but in principle it's impossible to say 
the number of floors + roof level + door location with a house every 6 
meters riding with a bike, whereas it's easy to capture with a series of 
photos.

If this tool suits you, so much the better,
but I have a very different opinion from your statements

Again, I don't see how making a note with the word "bench" that must 
then be converted into an osm tag would be more efficient than having
an application in which you write bench and which sends amenity=bench
to osm without any "note-to-copy-paste-into-tag" app.
The real improvement would be to have a voice command to control
an editor based on presets ("top" right bench 3-seat green wood greeen 
-> object created in osm, of course at 50km/h, the exact location is not 
easy, but it's the same issue with note) or SC (for existing objects)
