yes, we do not have a generic way of approaching this problem (and given how we 
do it elsewhere, maybe we should not have at all). Nested name hierarchies are 
quite common in the real world, e.g. for geographic regions, and while we have 
solved some special cases like settlements and their parts, we did not so far 
develop a solution for the generic case.

Locality might fit, but isn’t specific to a group of water bodies, so the 
solution consistent with the rest of the tagging system would likely be to use 
something like natural=* and name, where * is a name for this kind of feature, 
e.g. “waterbodies”.

On a sidenote, I would not see a case for a site relation if you map the ponds 
as areas.

Cheers, Martin
