As the author of an OSM data consumer (the router "Routino")
Can I just say how refreshing it is to have some input from the data
consumers. Most of the interminable debates about tagging are between
parties who talk about data entry issues (how many clicks, how much
support in editors etc) and could be sorted far more effectively by
considering what people want/expect to get out of the data. If the
consumers' point of view is not adequately represented OSM could easily
degenerate into WOM (like ROM only it's write-only). Any attempt to
limit mappers' creative freedom by "standardisation" is usually met with
howls of derision and dogmatic refusal.
Just my 2c...
