but that's not a requirement.
It'd be perfectly meaningful to say "in XYZ place there are lots of
brownfield sites not scheduled for any development".
Fine, so maybe we losen the Wiki definition a bit, saying that the land
_might_ be scheduled for future development. That leaves the focus on
the fact that the land had been used before.

Yes that is a form of troll tagging, negating the key. Thus I'd prefer
brownfield as above.
I agree that landcover=* can describe what has grown there.
