Some already have other ways of being mapped. Some may fit in with categories/classes/whatevers you already have. I don't insist that your proposal deals with all of them right now (you already have enough to be going on with) but it would be nice if your proposal doesn't make it impossible to add them, cleanly, at a later date.
