I think yes, add natural=dune to map features. I think natural means that the feature has a natural way of growing or forming, even if it’s guided, maintained or engineered by man. I know some artificial dunes, many artificial woods, many artificial landscapes and beaches. After creation, they behave naturally, as they are intended to do. Plants grow, trees grow and multiply, animals settle in, sand blows and gathers, water rises, flows and lowers, just as when the feature was indeed natural. Key natural is fine there.
