I am under the impression that the designation key is misused a lot in
Belgium. It's used for descriptions, notes, names, etc. (see

It's hardly used for its intended purpose:
The tag designation=* is used to record the legal classification of a way.
(see http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:designation UK-only ?.)
Or is there another definition/use of designation that I'm not aware of ?
You're right about the use, I even see I misused it myself in my first
edits even thought I understand the use as described now. So, I'm
correcting now. tx for the overpass query, makes it easy to fix this.
