The proposal is actually well designed in that regard. It doesn't redefine any existing tags and could simply be used in parallel with building=entrance while the "conversion" takes place. That "conversion" doesn't inherently need to involve bots or anything else except manual mapping. So I don't see a reason to oppose the proposal itself. What makes this case interesting beyond the relatively trivial tagging issue is that it raises the question whether we, as a community, are able to revise earlier decisions. To me it seems obvious that we need the ability to do so. But it is also apparent that we have no working process - not even an informal one - for handling data model changes.
