Hi Tobias, I've been giving this some thought. My conclusion is that user validation of tags shouldn't be stored in the same database table as the tags themselves. It's clear that as the map data ages, tag validation is going to be a task with parallel and equal importance to tagging itself, but

OpenStreetMap is a shared database - you generally shouldn’t annotate POI with tags for your own use. Tags should correspond to ground truth - hence they need to pass the verifiability. If I resurvey the POI, will I conclude the same future todo_check_date=* that you have previously added? What
