The general tag for a source of drinkable water is

Apparently our free tagging schema has led to 2 alternative keys for this:
drinkable=yes/no can be found here:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:amenity%3Dfountain
drinking_water=yes/no is defined here:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:drinking_water
The first is around 5 times more in use than the second. How shall we
proceed in order to unify the two?
Can we introduce "potable=yes/no" and migrate both of those tags to it over
time?
In Germany there are some laws, about what "Trinkwasser" is. So there
are different levels of saying this water is drinkable. I don't know if
it's good to mix it.
