Nope, everyone is free to use whatever tag they want.  Same goes for rendering. 
 If its useful locally in the UK  that is fine, but it should not suddenly 
appear on the Map Features page, certainly not without discussion/voting.  If 
it was used during early mapping, a "depreciated" note would an alternative.
