I am aware of that page (one hour ago reset it from "cancelled" to "draft" because capital as a key is not "cancelled" but well established). IMHO this proposal (and its discussion) doesn't advocate setting admin_level aside the capital tag. There was this idea back in 2008, but if you follow the discussion it looks as if capital is the key to go with (so no need for duplicating the same value in "admin_level" as well). Btw.: I completely agree with you that inheriting from administrative relations is worse than having an explicit tag on the place, as this inheritance idea doesn't work well with dynamic data (incremental updates and how they are usually applied, osm2pgsql). cheers, Martin
