What is IMHO a quite bad idea for two reasons:
– It’s unlikely that there will be software supporting features when there
is no tag.
– You would introduce a concurrent solution to a node

First of all, this is OSM: there are no "official" or "unofficial" tags. Use
what you like as long as it accords with core OSM tagging principles such as

Dormitories are rooms with multiple beds, usually bunk beds and associated with
youth hostels, certainly not suitable for student accommodation where there is
typically one student in a room, maybe two but they are certainly not
dormitories.

Toll? I assume that means the same in US English as in UK English?
You really have to pay to use cycleways? How is the toll collected and
enforced?

Wow, you really went over it very carefully, thanks for all the input. I will
go over your list of issues again, but can you "fix" it to as how you would see

know the parsing methods much better than I do ('cause I h
Richard's arguments seem spot on. I hadn't thought it through that way, and
his viewpoint is coming from two regimes.

Yea, it's a brothel - but it is avery particular style of brothel in Asia to
get around the laws , and AFAIK has very different customs than what I imagine

I have a question on highway link roads.
I came across some trunk_links that seemed really out of place today, but they
were recently added by a tagger that usually knows what they are doing.

I am American, and the concept of a toll cycleway is not one I have

Ah, Richard, its very hard to argue with someone who uses XKCD to
illustrate their point, unfair !
But, "no official tags" ? truish. But when I am speaking to someone, I
am free to make up new words and grammar, but should not expect to be
understood. Better to agree in advance.
