I agree with youk Graeme. I also saw that change on the tagging guidelines and was going to raise it so glad you did. There are still such things as covered reservoirs but these are more where you've got a larger area that is a reservoir that was covered over. The typical water towers, unless significantly elevated would just be man_made=storage_tank + content=water as you said.
