It seems that amenity=drinking_water is cut into stone and we will never be

Since the current term wadi can mean something more than the actual
watercourse, why not drop it and use ephemeral=yes or
intermittent=ephemeral on waterway=* to indicate that it carries water much
less often than a waterway tagged with intermittent=yes?
