Some of the recent patches to JOSMs default preset have included

This would seem to be to me quite interesting information to capture,
however the specific unstructured way of handling this would seem to be
a bit sub-optimal.
Can you elaborate a bit more in what way you wish this to be more
structured?
It is there to list similar tags. Do you want to structure the level of
"similarity"?
- add an attribute to the preset_link element, example > <preset_link
preset_name="Mast" alternative="true" />
So what else besides "alternative" do you suggest?
- introduce a new element, example
<alternative preset_name="Mast" />
I do not see the difference here.
besides "link" for generic links, this "preset_link" already is a link
specific for alternative presets. What would a new one differentiate?
- introduce a new element as a container, example
All references to "similar" presets are already known by the presence of
"preset_link". As you would have either one "alternatives" in case there
are links, or zero if not, what is the benefit of another container level?
