In fact they should. I mean not necessarily for different plants, but for different adjacent crops. Mapping single crops is enhancing the map with detail about the topological layout of an area. Using one big landuse=farmland, maybe even as multipolygon subtracting settlements and forest, is not a desirable approach (these relations tend to become more and more complex with every detail added, usually there is no need for multipolygon relations when mapping farmland, but there is lots of them.) To illustrate what I am talking about, this is an example for a big farmland which is IMHO not desirable: http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=42.7051&lon=11.7112&zoom=13&layers=M This is an example for single mapped crops: http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=42.0096&lon=12.10789&zoom=15&layers=M >> religion=scientology illegal=yes for a scientology "church"? > Does it look like a Roman Catholic church?

In some countries like Germany and France they are also observed by the secret service and the government takes an active position against them (they declare them as dangerous).
