These definitions belong in the wiki and do not belong in the database. Just as we do not, and should not, put instructions on how to use Potlatch or josm inside the highway tag, we should not put these data definitions in the CanVec tags. Including the CanVec uuid is appropriate. Including the definition is too much.
