OK, so I wasn't invloved in creating this proposal, but as a part of Polish community I want to add few words about this.
The idea was to reflect, the best we can, situation with graves. I think most of us agree, that we should separate information about grave itself (type, material, address) and people inside - we also don't add eg. birth date to monuments of famous people. So what choice do we have? We can add standard tags to grave node (but as I said, it rather should be avoided), but things are going nasty, when we have 5 people in one grave. Tags semicolon-separated? Pure nightmare to edit and easy to break it, when we want to add more than just peoples' names. A lot of people mentioned Wikidata. Do you know the rules of Wikidata? There are notability rules[1], so it's simply not possible to store information about every person there. Here you have real example, grave with three people: http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/1943454485 https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Cmentarz_Rakowicki_Grob_Dietla.jpg (photo) http://osmtools.org/groby/#lat=50.07499&lon=19.95284&z=18 (custom data browser) I will be more than happy to find better solution to map graves like this not using relations. Comments, that this is 'crazy' is actually not really nice...
