That's an interesting idea. No objection from me. I see a little problem in the "legal relevance". IMHO "drinkable=yes" has no legal relevance. It means the water is drinkable, even without official control. Water that is checked by public authorities can get the tagging "drinkable=official". The tag "drinking_water=yes" implicates somehow a legal relevance. I would like to tag a spring in the mountains with "drinkable=yes", although you will never get a official clearance for this source of water.
