I think the latter is intended for tagging onto a stadium or facility,
whereas the former is for landuse. I could imagine a list of valid
sports, rendering as a row of icons (of a golfer, a rugby ball, a
tennis bat and so on), for a health club or similar.

Would it not be better to have sport=golf (or leisure=golf_course)rendered as
an icon when placed on a single node, and rendered as an area when it's applied
to an area. Having two different tags with such a similar meaning seems
redundant to me.
(I've cc'd this massage to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and suggest we move further
discussion of this subject there).
