yep. I avoided a vote on the proposal because too many people were suggesting to use various combinations of natural=spring+temparature=XX and similar instead. However Tag:natural=hot_spring has been created anyway, apparently is marked as "de facto" since 2015 and nobody complained since than so it would seem alright to file a ticket to OpenCarto asking to have it rendered.
