actually someone has started adopting this scheme (I found it in areas
where I never mapped), and I'm inviting everybody to join in. There's no
good reason adding a landuse=forest to any arbitrary small group of trees,
besides it has always been done.

yes, no doubt. The more interesting question would be: what does this tag
imply. I am sure I would get more consistent answers from any 100 mappers I
ask about their interpretation of the tag for landcover=trees and for
natural=wood.
