Of course. I would have something like: =====----|----------- where: = is highway=service - is waterway=slipway (or whatever the tag is) | is the water line. Not sure whether a junction matters. > I thought the tagging system was meant to be consistent, before being > flexible.

I didn't mean for "everyone to go off with their own idea". Rather, if the current definition is too limiting, improve that, and document it in the central location, and use the new definition. Since you're documenting it in the central location, there is still only "one idea", unless someone disagrees with you, at which point you can work towards consensus. Just don't wait, and avoid tagging at all, simply because the definitions are inadequate.
