Hi all The proposal to introduce marker=* key for all kind of utility markers is about to be voted. https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Utility_markers_proposal
All previous comments have been solved and any new one will be welcome. Currently, more than 6k object are described with undocumented marker=stone which conflicts a bit with proposed marker classification. As those are mainly (to be determined on each situation) highway milestones or private ground limits, they're not covered by this proposal A suggestion would to define marker=milestone or marker=land_limit + support=pedestal + material=stone.
