Nederland has an awful lot of ways, waterways, railways, rivers, parkings, churchyards, and other linear and area features which are lined with a row of trees. And if I say a row of trees, think of 10 Km almost straight with a continuous line of evenly spaced trees at both sides, sometimes also in the middle, sometimes double or triple rows at each side, often with a separately lined cycleway and tree_lined ditches.
Even in the woods, roads often have a separate distinct tree lining, often between the road and the cycleways on both sides. As it is a distinctive and verifiable (by survey, by viewers and by satellite imagery) attribute of the road, it is worth mapping as secondary tag. The purpose varies and can be guessed but seldom verified, so best not try to define by purpose, just map what you see. Unlike cycleways and sidepaths along roads, no routing has to be done over a line of trees, but the attribute is nice to know for cyclists, hikers and motorists. One thing: we have tree rows in the middle of a road, not always combined with a side tree row. Maybe map that as a tree_row feature? About generic: I wouldn't call tree_lined a generic attribute. It specifically says the feature is lined by trees. Generic tagging IMO would be: lined=* where the value specifies which lining is used. If you want further specification of the tree_line details, I would suggest to use natural=tree_row and tag everything you wish to record about the trees. I don't really care if it's on a separate tree_line page.
