well, commercial was suggested for areas with offices on them, out of the 
existing landuses, IMHO there would indeed be space for a new institutional 
landuse value. Alternatively it could also be achieved by sub tagging (e.g. add 
commercial = public_administration), an option that could also be used to 
refine other landuses without redefining the existing values or adding new 
ones. E.g. industrial could be amended (light/heavy), residential could (dense 
/ sparse, only residential or also other stuff like shops, restaurants, petrol 
stations, etc) and so on.

this really requires further thought, until now it is not clear from the scheme 
how to do it more consistently, some landuses are very broad (commercial 
residential industrial), other are very specific (brownfield for instance)

cheers,
Martin
