Well, I think there are two different points in here, which need to be
treated separately. Firstly how to represent the relationship between
dependent states and their "parents", and secondly how to link the
capital to the territory it is the capital of. In both cases I think the
boundary relations
So regarding my question you say the implicit admin_level of a capital
should mirror the boundaries. A difference between "independent" and
non-independent should be developed there if needed.

Instead of labelling the city itself with capital=yes, consider adding
the city to the admin boundary with a role of "capital". Like that a
city can easily be capital of multiple administrative units (it might be
a national capital and a provincial capital at the same time) and it
stays distinct fr
While editing capital=yes I came across capitals of non-independent
countries which have their national border tagged with admin_level=2
